The get a job assignment was honestly one that I put off until the end of the semester because I really didn't have any idea of what to do or who to ask. Every year, since I was little, the Holiday Toy Express comes through Southern California and raises money for the local firefighters food and gift drives during the holidays. My dad is the editor for a monthly train newsletter and the manager of the paper, Roy, wanted there to be photos from one of the stops that the train made on its journey up north. After talking with Roy, I decided to go to the Rancho Cucamonga station and take pictures of the decorated train. It was an amazing experience and I took some pretty neat pictures of the lit up train and the crowd. I had a lot of fun doing this and hope that the photos will be suffice for the newsletter.
Onlookers enjoy the festive music and foam snow while the Holiday Toy Express stops at the Rancho Cucamonga train station on Sunday night. Raquel Tristan (not pictured) says, "It's not just a train stopping, but they put on a little production which the kids get a kick out of. And so do the parents."
