RARE F40ph Catch & Other Pacific Surfliner Trains
In this video, we'll take quick break from the Los Angeles Metro system and check out some much bigger trains, with today's focus being Amtrak's Pacific Surfliner route.
Spanning between San Luis Obispo and San Diego, this line features numerous big cities, beaches and destinations alike, although most of the trains and passengers travel between Los Angeles and San Diego.
With many attractions, events, and scenic beaches to see on this line, it's one that's impossible to get bored of!
In this particular video, I was able to capture a few of the 'standard' trains that operate on this line, as well as a rare appearance from an old F40ph "Cabbage" and some 1960s Comet cars.
While the Surfliner has it's own set of engines and coaches, issues such as breakdowns or increased demand during certain times often leads to equipment from other routes and places being used.

    All final destination signs within the current Metro C Line (Green) stations from Redondo Beach to Norwalk are soon gonna change by November of this year. With the future LA Metro Rail stations of Aviation/Century and LAX/MTC opening by November of this year, the C and K Lines are gonna be realigned. The C Line will soon run from Norwalk directly to LAX Airport, with all Redondo Beach bound destination signs at existing C Line stations soon reading "To LAX/Metro Transit Center 🟢(C)". All Norwalk bound destination signs at the C Line stations within Redondo Beach and El Segundo will soon read "To Expo/Crenshaw (K)" with the K Line soon taking over that part of the C Line route.

      G Line formerly has NABI 60-BRT before it was replaced completely by New Flyer XE60 Buses. As you said G Line should be rail, that was Metro's actual plan to convert G Line into Light Rail in the future. So we have to wait and see if the future holds since the new LRT is being approved taken place in Van Nuys.

    • @azundah1769
      @azundah1769 2 місяці тому

      I heard they're pulled out of service due to issues hence why car #237 is on the Green Line when this video was shot. The A Line is the longest line and the Siemens P2000 is unable to reach from Azusa to Long Beach and back without pulling out of service for maintenance. Another UA-cam user said they also break down on the Green Line too even that line is short. Man, Alstom did a horrible job refurbishing these trains and Metro said they're going to be replaced in 2030 so I guess they might end up on the Green Line and the K Line instead of the A Line if they're unable to operate on the longest line in this system.

  • @angelictofu

    Oooh, I love the way these trains' doors open and close. My local trains have the doors slide over the outside, rather than the inside as these do. It gives the trains a nice futuristic look, especially when they close flush with the rest of the car

    • @angelictofu
      @angelictofu 2 місяці тому

      Actually - I'd be curious to know what the doors look like from the inside. Do they slide along the interior wall or do they have a hidden compartment to slide into? If it's the latter that would be so cool, as it would allow the interior wall to be a nice spot to lean against without having to stand clear of the entrance. Even if it's the former, it's still a cool and different look than the one I'm used to!

    It would be a lot nicer if this subway were equipped with platform screen doors instead of those silly yellow stanchions at car-length intervals. If a criminally insane person were to push someone onto the tracks, he'd do it when the train is entering the station. Get those platform screen doors built!

    • @kilodeltaeight
      @kilodeltaeight 2 місяці тому

      The flex posts are actually an ADA requirement, so blind riders don’t mistake the gap between train cars as an open door and attempt to board there. Of course, platform screen doors would solve that problem, but the US is weirdly resistant to them.

    Good video of the LA Metro B and D lines. I can't wait for them to start using the new subway cars. They were supposed to be coming online by now already. These Bredas are over 30 years old now. However, I read they might end up refurbishing some of them since they were having issues getting enough of the new ones from CRRC. Probably explains why LA Metro also fired CRRC and went with another company to get future additional new cars.

    • @EdwardM-t8p
      @EdwardM-t8p 2 місяці тому

      The MBTA in Boston are none too happy with their CRRC subway trainsets either, especially over issues the firm was having getting the trains built and delivered on time. They are still running unrefurbished 50 year old Pullmans and 35 year old UTDC's!

    it's not a scenic system nor is it very long, but the architecture is perhaps the best of the modern US metro systems. The back-lit overhead station signs are a nice touch. also you gotta appreciate how deep it runs beneath the santa monica mountains on the way to Universal/NH

The B & d lines are my favourite in the entire system also cars 515/516 and 539/540 have a unique paint scheme with just one red stripe on the gray body. Great video (edit) I forgot to mention all these trains are equipped with Ato meaning all the operator has to do is open and close the doors at the stations however they can be manually driven. I talked to a b line operator once and he said they have one manual trip per shift. Also the cabs on these units are relatively smaller looking
