New 5-2012 (above) Who doesn't love a parade? Here we see a gayly (note: historic usage consistent with the depicted period) camouflaged light tank (best guess) tearing up the pavement between the San Jose Railroads Santa Clara Street trolley tracks in this early 1930's photo. The Del Monte cannery (now condos) looms behind the freight depot, in a spot that would have been a much better location for SP's San Jose depot than Cahill Street.
