- During certain times of year when there are a lot of travelers, Amtrak runs extra long Pacific Surfliner trains. In this video, we will take a look at several extra long Surfliner trains during the busy Thanksgiving and summer travel seasons. Chargers, P42s and F59PHI locomotives all work together to get travelers to their destinations on time.
Am I the only one still missing the F59PHI's?
I miss them too
No,I miss em too
I miss them as well!
I don’t live where they operated but yes I do miss em
I don't live where they operated but I did see one during a trip from Denver to San Francisco. I miss them too.
There's Absolutely Nothing Like Riding Along The Southern California Coast Line By Rail. Simply The Best. Simply Priceless. Awesome Video.
There’s also nothing like riding behind a steam locomotive
@@rkpr9370 I've Rode One In Pigeon Forge Tennessee On A Steam Tour Last Year And It Was A Spectacular Journey. I Was Kind Of Upset That I Haven't Recorded It. But A Good Friend Of Mine Did. I'll Have To See Did He Posted Anywhere.
Have you ever heard of the Strasbourg Railroad dejohn913?
@@rkpr9370 As A Matter of Fact Yes I Have and I Don't Live Too Far From It. Actually About An Hour Away From It. I'm From The Philadelphia Area. I Haven't Rode It In 3 Years But I'm Planning On Riding It Before The Fall Hits. But Its Beautiful Scenery Alone The Route.
Rest In Peace F59 PH you were my childhood in 2010
Tyler Tylerstainback100_YT_Rblx how did you know
Ayden Postigo They we’re still there in 2010 but this year they retired all of the F59 Ph but the North Carolina F59 PHI are still running today
Tyler Tylerstainback100_YT_Rblx that’s it rip F59 PH (2010-2019)
Ayden Postigo you mean 2000 that’s the year they were in service
Tyler Tylerstainback100_YT_Rblx your right
Look at it this way: Not everybody likes it when Surfliners are this long, and you know why? Because they want to hear some Surfliner Cab Car horn!
Still, these were all a ton of great shots!
No they don’t it’s a long Surfliner
So what?
We are blessed to live in a country with a hardworking busy train system Amtrak and Mike you have the best videos day or night long or short I enjoy watching thank you
Imagine The P42s Getting The Surfliner Paint Scheme?
kylle quesada F40s got it somehow. Somehow the pictures are so scarce.
Don’t put that image in my head please lol
yea i saw the f40ph painted on that surfliner scheme and boy oh boy it did not made me happy
That F40 is in service in Nashville
Photoshoppers: "Anything that can be done, will be done..."
I really miss the F59PHIs.
Me too.
Are the F59PHIs scrapped, sold, or in storage?
@@RubyyVista They're in the Chicago area right now. I am seeing few F59s still lurking around here not sure if it's just for extra units or are still awaiting to be replaced
@@legalizebuckets594 Most likely still awaiting to be replaced.
You can still see them at most of the same stations. Metrolink has 5 of them.
I could actually tolerate those Siemens chargers if they had 1st generation K5LAs and they front didn't look like it got sucker punched
The horn is fine for me, but the front is just awful.
having been to Europe and Japan, but grown up on those beaches and ridden the Coast Starlight more than any other train... man I wish this thing could be managed better and unleashed from auto industry manipulation.
I read the title as "So long Surfliners" at first. I thought the Surfliners were going away!
I like the catches of a P42 at one end and an SC44 at the other. I just saw the missouri River runner with a B23-8WH at the other end a few days ago (may 2019)!
0:50 nice catch of the entire train in Surfliner colors!
2:30 The old F59PHI at one end and the new SC44 at the other!
3:17 I like that catch where the last three cars are in Amtrak California colors, with a matching Dash 8!
3:47 nice catch of three private cars on a horizon set! The horn on that F59PHI is unsual!
5:02 that's a lot of private cars!
7:44 nice catch of a prive car in front of the rear loco!
I hope i get a chance to ride the Surfliners but probably when I'm a lot older and out of the house by then probably the SC-44's will start to be replaced
The regular superliners look great painted in Surfliner colors. If only the rest of them were repainted for Surfliner service.
Great job 👍 Mike
0:41, 1:31, 6:19 Amtrak Surfliner Blue Train Great 👍
What wonderful engines are the F59PHIs. 😍
I just realized what’s going to happen to the heritage units
Fantastic video
Theres still some F59PHI’s
North California / Carolina
What a fantastic video! Thanks for all your work in putting it together! I am impressed... Haven't been out to CA in years...glad to see the Pacific Surfliners doing well.
Super video!
Damn it the only way we here in St. Louis can go to San Diego on Amtrak now a days is to hop on board the Amtrak Texas Eagle and Amtrak Surfliner train.
I like it when there is two P42DC on the long sets man I can't wait for comic con but nice video Mike thx for uploading this video
I'm going to miss the P42's when the Chargers start replacing them on long-distance trains.
The P42DC locomotives can't retire. They need to be in service longer. I'm not ready for them to go. I sure won't let them go lol.
@@FordEscape12345678 hopefully when the P42's retire they can do the same thing with the ex Amtrak P40's. Go to commuter railroads
Thank you for sharing with us mr. Armstrong
Nice Video!
Absolutely beautiful surfliner footage great seaside shots
Amazing Video Mike! Love the camera work!
3:07 surfliner & capital corridor together? That's new
Bless You, Mr. Mike Armstrong, Bless You, You are the Best! :-D
When you get aboard amtrak you get to see the beautiful scenery and countryside
Good Video. 🇮🇳
Superb Mike, a lovely ending to my week.
Best trainspotting video of all time
This is awsome i love Railfanning i seen Surfliners i railfanned them. In July 6 2018
The picture at the end was an AMAZING shot
Hail the Surfliners
Awesome Video Mike
I really love your channel. I have been watching your train vids for over 2 years now. I’ve been watching since I was 6. From Darrius. To Coaster.
Wow! Excellent narration
I shed a tear for every f59 in this vid, although i do like the charger.
I like your channel! Watching your videos with pleasure! Best wishes from Ukraine! I wish you good luck and creative powers!😊👍
Great shots and effort! 🙂
is there any wonder way this is the second most profitable line on the Amtrak System; Thanks for sharing Mike
When will you do the "trains and railroad crossings". I can never wait for it.
8:51 Awesome K5LA
This is getting me excited for the Surfliner's busy season an a few weeks. I better start getting my camera ready!
0:40 I can't believe you saw a 9 car Surfliner with entirely Surfliner coaches. They almost always use at least 1 Superliner coach on those trains.
There was a Superliner car painted in the Surfliner Scheme
Hi Mike Armstrong, let me tell you that this is an awesome video. Well done.
I’ve lived along the Surfliner for 14 years now... I wouldn’t consider all of these “super long” like the 9-10 car sets... but the 11, and 12 car sets... those are pretty long, not trying to hate... but not all of these I would consider “super long.” Still an amazing video with great shots! Nice to look back at some F59s.
Great video
Thanks for the great videos! Could you potentially include the locations for each clip? Some look familiar and I want to see if my eyes are deceiving me or not!
Thanks!!!
Amazing high quality Amtrak action CoasterFan2105! How many cars can these Surfliners have?
My brother loves Amtrak surfliner 'Metrolink and 🚇 I love steam trains and 🚆
(Love your videos)
Nice!!
I've been wondering where Amtrak CA 2051 + 2052 went - they've been missing on their normal Norther CA routes since the beginning (at least) of 2019!
Neat!
My school district has come to an end
5:34 and 3:50 are the longest trains
Star-lite...~♡~... Eugene Oregon to Los Angeles
Great video! Where exactly was the shot at min 5.17 between the palmtrees? Was this train comes from or towards San Diego?
Great video, Mike! I’m sure you get this a lot, but what camera do you use? The footage is great!
Nice catches My ke
Excellent Video!
Could someone please tell me the location at 4:03 and where these bridges at 5:00 and 5:34 are?
Thanks a lot!
The bridge at 5:00 is in solvang on the pacific surfliner
It would be wonderful to know what city they are traveling through love looking at the scenery also and love watching the trains
Mike, do you remember seeing SP 2472? It's cool.
0:41 a full surfliner set with both chargers no grey superliner cars
R.I.P f59phi
I like 464s horn
How many are usually part of the Surfliner during normal travel times?
All SC44 trains
0:14
0:41
1:32
4:43
6:23
On 0:56 that Amtrak F59PHI horn sounded like ATSF 5 chime Freight Whistle. Pretty strange isn’t it?🤔
I don’t get it, are the cabcars not meant to pull more than the number of cars the Surfliner normally runs?
Cab Cars can't pull anything. They're actually being pushed by the engine. They find it more ethical to put 2 engines on opposite ends instead of double-heading, so the Cab Cars get no time to shine.
Why is there always one car without the "SURFLINER" decals on the sides, and theres no blue at the top?
0:14 0:32 2:13 2:27 8:26
One of the F59PHI horns was fouled
When did u catch those trains? F59PHI 464 459 and the others are still there I thought all of them are gone
My mind of those train like those call a train mobile with weapons and completely unstoppable that no one can't stop them but thay can you and so as the other vehicles and robots 😀
Wait F59PH still Active on Amtrak?
@@thomascunningham5013 yes
at 2:14 WAS THAT A PARK CAR?
Everyone I know thought 464 went to retirement but no she still running I told them
no she went to metra where she is now with the other f59s I have a vid on my channel of one.
@@planeflight1202 I know that a friend of mine told me she was moved to Metra but at least I saw her one last time
i wish the Chargers were painted in Platinum Mist instead of that weird grey color. It just doesn't fit quite as well with the Amtrak aesthetic...
How's San Diego going?
Good train are also okay on time or 1 to 2 hours behind schedule
YEET
Hello friend, because one day you can plan to make videos of trains from my country, Chile, in fact I am Chilean sou and I speak Spanish and this message was translated in English because I speak Spanish hahah, Good but it would be good idea there are trains like fepasa Xtrapolis Modular And Xtrapolis, look for those models in Google, I hope you read my comment, Bay :)
Mike what happend to the F59PHIs
Arthur Harris they got sent to Metra via the Southwest Chief #3 one by one... it was pretty sad to see them go
@@BNSF_7777_Productions do you play roblox
😍🇨🇴😍
Isn't it a waste of energy having a locomotive on both ends of an Amtrak train?
AMTRAK SURFLINER CONTRACT OF POLLUTION 100% EXPLAIN THIS 4:05
Keep P42S and SC-44s no more do not retire the P42DC especially the 120
Wheres is the FREAKING F59PHI
🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
I don’t know why but the first one looks like it has a face
Can you not put a Thanks. For Watching logo please ?
He can do what ever he wants. No need to order him what to do.
Drew trainfan2354 Dude seriously? What is your problem? That just means he actually appreciates those who take the time out of their days to see his content. Don’t act like it’s a bad thing
Great video
