UP 1375, one of only 3 GP40P-2s ever built, had recently been released from it's post at Anaheim for several years, and soon found itself working the various locals and yard jobs in the Los Angeles Area. One such assignment it found itself on this particular day was the LOW10, the Torrance Local.

Today I chased the job all over the Torrance Industrial Lead and on the El Segundo Industrial Lead towards the end of the video. The train served three industries: Phillips 66, JCI Jones Chemicals, and Crenshaw Lumber, doing various interesting maneuvers including street running in Gardena. Many classic crossing setups featuring old cantilevers and mechanical bells are present on this line and accentuated the urban habitat that this train travels through.

Urban railroading just doesn't get any better than this. Thanks for watching!
