Bare with me these are old videos a lot of shaky but here you’ll see Amtrak Union Pacific southern pacific metrolink surfliner F40ph Amtrak California F59phi etc enjoy
Glad to see a video where the Surfliner F40PH is actually leading the same train that it's painted after. You don't really see those videos a whole lot on TH-cam.
I really like this footage. The Surfliner painted F40PH are really interesting since there is hardly any footage of them. I wonder if the Amtrak California painted consists we're down in L.A. for maintenance and/or to help out on the Surfliner. Overall good footage!
In the beginning California lended a lot of Capitol Corridor equipment to the surfliner while their equipment was being built cause the CC didn’t need all those coaches and cabs just yet
We railfans do as well the same here but, on the Cajon, San Bernadino, Yuma, Alhambra, San Gabrial and the Pasadena Subdivisions. Time do change sadly :,[
27:19 There's coach 197 before it was involved in the dreaded 2005 Glendale Train Crash. Although it did survive and is still around today, it's funny to think that if luck went any differently, that car wouldn't be around today, and you would own the one and only footage to ever exist of the car. I feel you should have given Metrolink a little more emphasis at this time. Maybe you could have taken one and only footages of the four ill-fated Cab Cars, 608, 623, 625, and 634.
Why was every train 1000000% cooler than what runs now? Every starlight has some cool locmototive, Every and way more freight trains have a Cool heritage/forein unit, The sufliners are allways singe, WHY CANT WE HAVE THIS STUFF NOW!?

@9:20, what was that about? lol I didn't think I'd see a Surfliner behind a Coast Starlight like that.
It would be cool to see this footage digitized for real. What media is it on?
Probably VHS
I would really like to help you digitize this stuff properly if you are able to! What media is this on?
Judging by the distortions on the video, it seems like this is on VHS

Pretty sick that amtrak 381 and 383 were both filmed here.

did you take these yourself?
trimetwes fan1003 yes
@@lui459 good because this is the only video of surfliner f40s on TH-cam.
@@TWF1003 There are actually quite a few videos of the Surfliner F40PH's on youtube, most of them being 381 running on the Music City Star
@@PrimeMoverRailfanProductions i mean surfliner f40s being used on surfliner trains.
