8 traction motors, not transformers.. And another thing.. these trains are ABSOLUTELY SILENT from trackside at speed when the horns or bells aren't sounded. Stay safe.
Are you sure they don't actually mean 8 transformers (but supposed to be 7)? If I counted right in the brief aerial view, the train had 7 cars, and I thought all axles were powered (unlike some of the versions for use in Europe), and it looks like at least 6 of them have pantographs up (can't be sure whether one pantograph is shared between 2 cars or one of them is a trailer).
Nice to see Byron still has her side job as Caltrain PSA.

Amazing work Caltrain! Really jealous of your service and rail from up here in Oregon - gonna advocate to make it happen here!
