    Nice work Hunter, I was on the first trip, "Kite Excursion". Also rode the Shay that day, cautioned "Do not stand behind the firebox door". This was just after I joined the BAERA and also my first trip onboard a Shay. Sorry to hear about the accident in 1977. You just keep digging out the gems!

    Well, there's my favorite Amtrak unit - 353! Thank you for posting this! I always loved seeing and hearing 353 and 369 when they ran on San Joaquins. Minor correction - 353 had a P5 variant at this time, worn out from heat and exhaust due to its placement just behind the turbo hatch. After its late-1995 [final] rebuild, it initially had a K5LA that modulated pitch like a steam whistle. That horn was replaced sometime before summer of 1999, with what we hear in this video. There are also really clear recordings of it in "Sacramento Steam" and "Railfair '99."

I railfanned there for a bit once because a wb was in the siding waiting for an eb, then went to the west portal of tunnel 3 and waited...and waited...and waited. After about two hours, with mother nature calling, I started heading back to my car. No sooner than I got out of sight of the portal (I really wanted a shot of a train emerging), one came.
