I remember the dumping of "redbirds" but yes, subway cars were being dumped in the early 1960's.
I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for the info.

Found this when my girlfriend was cleaning out some old family photos. She said "this must be from California" but I immediately recognized the "rust bucket" cars. Any idea where this location could be?

No idea as to place, but time wise my first thought was after the retirement of the rust bucket fleet (when replaced by the current diesel country junkers), but the car, truck, etc. scream 80's! But why would these rust buckets be stored with freight cars?
