Pacific Coast Aggregates
Eight shots, early 1970s, all mine, of the electric operation at the Pacific Coast Agregates plant in Davenport, CA.  The passenger car was used to move the troops up to the pit.  The electric motors were used to bring down the agregate in the hopper cars pictured.  The operation was junked and a conveyor belt system installed shortly after my visit.  No, it wasn't my fault.
