- After surfing up at Oceanside, I decided to head down to Old Town and do some railfanning for the rest of the afternoon and evening. I headed to Old Town on Coaster #688 and just barely managed to catch Amtrak 583 leaving Old Town ! I also managed to catch a 3 engine consist on Amtrak 774 & 785 ! After catching Amtrak 591, I took Coaster #693 back to Oceanside, but I wasn't aware of Amtrak P42DC #42 being in the area. When Coaster #693 was approaching Encinitas on a side track, P42DC #42 passed right by Coaster #693 ! So close to catching P42DC #42, but oh well.
Train 1 : Amtrak 583 with CabCar #6952 & P42DC #1. I just barely got off of Coaster #688 and had time to set up to catch Amtrak 583 !
Train 2 : Amtrak 774 with F59PHI #455, #456, #460 & CabCar #6903. Very nice engineer and K5LA !
Train 3 : Coaster #689 with F40PHM-2C #2102 & CabCar #2308. Very nice engineer and K5LA action !
Train 4 : Amtrak 785 with F59PHI #460, #456, #455 & CabCar #6903. Notice what happens as soon as the guy walks in front of the train !
Train 5 : Amtrak 580 with F59PHI #464 & CabCar #6905.
Train 6 : Coaster #692 with CabCar #2308 & F40PHM-2C #2102.
Train 7 : Amtrak 591 with CabCar #6905 & F59PHI #464. Nice K5LA action on #6905 !
Thanks for Watching !
9:50 sounds like 460 was doing a horn war with the trolley
Awesome Video
Thank you !
It sucks that you didn't see P42DC #1 lead, it sounded awesome!
Yeah, I took Coaster #688 from Oceanside to Old Town that day. I did see P42DC #1 pulling into Oceanside, but I didn't really considered filming it.
No way SpencerHughes2255 filmed on that day.
Nice catches! It's unusual to see a P42 as power for a surfliner
Thanks ! Well, for the last few years, P42DC's and P40DC's have been a common occurrence on the Surfline.
9:52 sweet Hybrid K5LA on 460. sucks its a raised letter k5la on it now lol
This is the same day Spencer Hughes 2255 recorded this plus Paul Walkers death
