Jimmy Bryant's job as a truck driver for Thrifty Drug Stores in the early- to mid- 1980's allowed him
to pass through Klamath Falls on occassion, and on a couple visits he was able to snap some pictures,
some of which are displayed on this page.

An overview of the Sycan shop complex in February 1984. Locomotive #7603 is parked in front of the shop, while slugs #7606 and #7607 share the track alongside the building with Weyerhaeuser #310. The brown car in the middle of the picture is a former wine tank car that was used to store various lubricating oils.
