NCTD 538 Coaster Passenger Train Southbound, W Beech St Railroad Crossing, San Diego CA

[Filmed October 29, 2021]
Rushed here at the last minute after seeing that this Coaster would depart Old Town Transportation Center at 8:31pm so I came here to film it. This made up for the BNSF Autorack With an H1 that sat at the siding forever and I didn’t film it. I just barely set up before the crossing activated which is why the beginning is a little shakey but I’m very satisfied because two light rail trains and a NCTD Coaster makes up for a missed freight train. I wondered if there were any Amtraks or Coasters since before I saw the freight train at S 32nd Street Double Railroad Crossing but couldn’t film it because it was already past the crossing and I don’t film after the train is past the crossing I saw another NCTD Coaster meeting an Amtrak Pacific Surfliner at W Washington Street Railroad Crossing but couldn’t film that either. I’m still satisfied even though I really messed up not filming those trains. Before this I filmed two light rail trains at the W G Street and Kettener Boulevard Railroad Crossing but I’m saving those videos for a different day. These bells are definitely not original most of the WCH Type 4s were once US&S Electronic Bells.
Southbound North County Transit District (NCTD) Coaster Passenger Train on the San Diego Sub passes through the West Beech Street Railroad Crossing in San Diego (Little Italy) California. The freight train stopped at the siding and never moved so I didn’t film it but got this instead. Before this I filmed two light rail trains at West G Street and Kettener Boulevard Railroad Crossing and I also saw a NCTD Coaster Passenger Train meet an Amtrak Pacific Surfliner at the W Washington Street Railroad Crossing.
