I find it interesting that you see a lot of sidewards jerking of the engines that are supported by 4 axles, but the Talgo cars always seem to ride smoothly though the track imperfections on a single axle! Watch the action at around 7:15 for an example.
What a beautiful train, at least I still see them everyday😊
I love how the tiny talgo is carrying a chunky dash 8
Yep! Don't get to see that combo very often!
Holy crap. The first one was crossing after crossing after crossing, that was cool!
Yeah it sure is! It is a called "horn alley," and It is one of the best places to railfan in portland!

BostonGuy That is very interesting I haven't really noticed that until now!
That's because Talgos are suspended in the ceiling--they're tilt trains designed to lean into the curves.
What train is this?
Talgo is my fav train on the cascade train
Holy guacamole
That horn alley was crazy
Well it’s has to b loud.
Is that horn from the tal go or the engine
Amazing! I saw the first one in Vancouver, but couldn't film it.
Definitely an interesting catch for Amtrak Cascades
have you tried railfanning in eugene?
Its got the Seattle Seahawks unit
That Talgo locomotive looks like a duck-billed platypus.
Etc are you interested
Are those talgo cars?
Yes!
at 0:09 those three should have watched where they have been For
their safety
Yeah. I once saw a bike dart out in front of a train one second before it went by. One of the reasons it won't become a quiet zone any time soon
TOO BAD THEY NO LONGER HAVE THE AMTRAK PIONEER TRAIN 25 AND 26 WILL IT EVER MAKE A COMEBACK WITH THE DESERT WIND TRAIN ON AMTRAK
It kinda looks like that Disneyland tram almost
It doesn't look like anything

Horn amzanng amtrak
For the sake of all Humanity, please stop broadcasting videos of that horrible looking Cabbage. It hurts my eyes.
Greatdome99 haha. Are you talking about the talgo can car or the npcu
Thank the FRA's ape brain.
