  • After the Montecito landslides and with the 101 freeway closure, residents had no way to make it up or down from the north, so Amtrak responded with the adding of extra passenger cars and locomotives in order to accommodate the surplus amounts of people who have no other option of transport but by train. Amtrak brought down Caltrans' only 2 P32-8BWH locomotives and a few of the Morrisson-Knudsen California Cars from up in Northern California, which are in service on the San Joaquins and Capitol Corridors. These units only spent a week in-service on Surfliners, and were only put on trains north of Los Angeles. Enjoy this short montage of the California Dash 8's plus the other variety of action commonly seen at Los Angeles's famous Union Station.

    Even the rail line was closed at one point. During that time they were moving people between Santa Barbara & Ventura via ferry boats. Monticito was hit by mudslides (along with fires, earthquakes & riots, one of California's four seasons). A buddy of mine was on his nightly 18 wheeler run to L.A. when he was hit by a wave-size moving wall of mud. It was only a life time of driving experience that kept him upright. He was trapped on the freeway for three days before they were able to cut thru all of the debris and with a Highway Patrol escort move a several mile long stretch of vehicles down to city streets and get them on their way.😮
