Ketchup Juice If you didn’t already know, a couple years back the f59phi locomotives were sold to metra by Amtrak California. They used to run of the Pacific Surfliner from Los Angeles to San Diego. These f59s were my childhood. Waiting at the station for the headlights to come around the bend with my old camcorder out was the best feeling of all. I sure do miss them but I believe their new home isn’t to bad.
6:42 that's not Rivers Grove that's Oak lawn southwest service line but nice 198 metra horn show at the Oak lawn coming from Hometown il to Oak lawn Metra station
Fun fact: Metra 217 is former Amtrak F40PH 364, that was sold to the Virginia Railway Express renumbered V32, was then sold to Metra in 2017 after VRE retired their F40PH-2s, rebuilt to a PH-3, and bears Metra's Thunderbolt Paint Scheme

Ah River Grove, I know that place well. My house is a 10 minute walk from there, just inside the Chicago boundary. I'd walk to that station a few times a week and record everything I could. I got videos and pics of the old F40Cs, a Milwaukee Road geep, plenty of old Soo Line locos, and more. Now a days I go down to Bensenville yards.
The Fact That Metra Repainted The F59PHI's In A Near Similar Paint Scheme As They Had On The Surfliner Is Very Wholesome For Metra
Facts!
They did it like that because it was cheaper then painting in a different scheme
@@canadianrailfanproductions7630that sounds more like 6901.
Tyler Mac yes they do
brought me back to the old surfliner days

Their home is just cold now
I think lots of us can agree no horn zones suck. So this is a nice refresher seeing areas that metras can blow their horns.
@ 2:34 amazing horn on former Amtrak 450 (Metra 73)
0:01 amazing horn on former Amtrak 457 (Metra 80)

Yes
Correct
@@spencerhughes2255 question: How come you don't put your description of trains in your description anymore?
@@MetxsightseerRailfan notice how hard it is, i did that, but my video didn’t save, Legit pain
I really hope you could film at Oak Forest.
