Great video of Amtrak's Pacific Surfliners, BNSF freights & Metrolink commuter trains in Los Angeles, Orange & Ventura Counties. On May 27, 2017 I will be riding to Oxnard, CA on the Pacific Surfliner from San Diego. Since that's a Saturday of the Me oral Day weekend it makes sense for me to take Amtrak when I go to Oxnard. I travel long distance on Amtrak and I will be riding Amtrak more often when I'm in the San Diego are when I go to & from Los Angeles & Oxnard instead of driving. I will have to drive from where I live at in the Loser City Tucson metro area because there is only the Tri weekly Sunset Limited that serves Tucson. If our country had high speed passenger train service like Japan has I would be making trips to the San Diego area 8 times a year.
I find it odd that no one mentioned the ditch light bulb being out on the front of the locomotive during the first segment of the video. Have a splendid day folks. :) 6/6/16 1:48 a.m. cst
What a jerk that guy was! Was he trying to put a pebble or a coin on the track to try to derail the train? That's a criminal act. He ought to be arrested!
He’s not trying to derail the train. He was just trying to see how flat a coin can get. It poses little to no threat to the train. He should’ve done it earlier though
It’s 505 and it’s the left ditch light that’s not working, the right ditch light is good. 505 probably hit a bird, hence why its left ditch light is broken.
It's so weird for a European to see all those grade crossings on main lines and rather heavy trains on one-track rights of way. But I do understand why trains have always been a more casual means of travel to us... it simply pays better to run trains in densely populated areas with major cities less than 100km from each other on average.
At one point a Metrolink engineer died when the cabcar hit a semi, and the FRA(Federal Railroad Administration) was sent out to investigate the reason why he died, and they came to the conclusion that he died, because the cabcars have a design flaw in them, so they are not strong like the front of the BNSF units!

Because there was a accident one time with a Metrolink cabcar. The cabcar hit a truck driver and the driver died. One of the causes of the accident is that cabcar had a design flaw. And that point one, BNSF locos pull most metrolinks.
+Tyler Clark engines get overhauled because they need major repairs or they're old and they just want to replace some old parts, repaint the loco, etc. 462 gets to beech grove by being pulled on the southwest chief
+MrCsxtrain I just find it weird that they would stick a BNSF locomotive in front of a cab car. It seems like a waste of power, unless the cab cars weren't working for whatever reason.
Wow, 464 has a horn that it had a long time ago. It's RL K5LA 3rd Gen crapped out real fast. I rode behind that one like 3 times.

12:53 sounds awesome and cool!
18:11 sounds awesome!
The Amtrak dash 8 have broken ditch light on the right 1:10
It’s actually the left ditch light.

Pfft... a pebble or a coin wouldn't derail the train... they would just get smooshed like nothing!
Please tell me this is a joke. This has to be a joke.
Tyler Mac yes it is
He’s not trying to derail the train. He was just trying to see how flat a coin can get. It poses little to no threat to the train. He should’ve done it earlier though
0:51 guy puts rock on tracks
I am BugMan put it in the wrong spot
the first train with 505 was pretty awesome
Southern pacific railfan ch
Good Footage, thanks for sharing.
love the drone shots
4:20 Excellent k5la horn blast
So your only trespassing if you actually get on the track it’s ok if you near the track at a safe distance
Omg it looks like 777 from unstoppable with the broken headlight
Awesome video!
EXCELLENT! Thank you. I feel like an "old" Sheldon Cooper LOL
0:12 Amtrak 505 honks the crossing gates sound
They are close to the station
Awesome video😊☺😊
They need to get that light bug fix on the p32
It looks kinda cool though

16:10 funky sounding horn
Amtrak 505 wasnt blown all the way
Amtrak has a button that blows only 2 chimes when 1/2 is pushed (half way) and all chimes sound when fully pushed.
Train Jojo cool
AmtrakMan42 Lover
If i were the driver, id go all the way
wow 2 metrolinks in one
bro, why isn't the right headlight working on the amatrak 506, but I really liked the new horn
It’s 505 and it’s the left ditch light that’s not working, the right ditch light is good. 505 probably hit a bird, hence why its left ditch light is broken.
did you ever catch P42DC 61 with cabcar 6953

One thing learned from this vid. I am never taking metrolink
Why? They had BNSF pull Metrolink trains after an accident that derailed the train as a safety precaution.
@@jeremybarker5510 I agree with you i don’t think he’s right bc bnsf pulled it
6:54 464 sounds like it had 460’s hybrid k5la.
Does the coast starlight ever go to San Diego ?
No
oh ok cause some videos it looks like its somewhere south of los angelas
505 is emmet from rails of highland valley
nice drone footage
That first horn sounded like a K5HL!
If you took the number 5 bell from this horn and replace it with a 1L bell, it would sound exactly like a K5HL.
K5H Horn
Zurn Ellerman19 I think it might be a k5l
It’s a hybrid K5LA
6:13 R.I.P headphone users...
Yup
Really great engineer on that Amtrak Dash 8! Nice horn as well :)
so neat. good video
2:43 What is this place name
Wow that trespasser shoulda lost his arm to 505, teach him a great lesson! Also 505 looks like one of its ditchlights is out.
Good video
I would like to make a return trip back here to photograph more trains!!
Love the drone stuff.
Does anyone know why BNSF frieight locos are being used on Metrolink trains instead of just using a cabcar?
+Thomas Lauffenberger metrolink rotems havea problem with the snowplow being too low, so they use bnsf locos to replace them until fixed
At one point a Metrolink engineer died when the cabcar hit a semi, and the FRA(Federal Railroad Administration) was sent out to investigate the reason why he died, and they came to the conclusion that he died, because the cabcars have a design flaw in them, so they are not strong like the front of the BNSF units!
That's the reason l heard as well
Hell of a way to find out

Great camera and Very Stable Drone

505 has a broken ditchlight.
and also the same with 6953.
One BNSF metrolink has another BNSF metrolink
Genesis engines on Surfliners look a bit wierd. Unusual when you Normaly see them on the silver star or with coatches in Amtrak phase IV livery.
Spencer, can you release footage from the camera you shot on video in another video instead of the drone.
I haven’t used a drone in 2 years.
@@spencerhughes2255 basically the camera and audio from the ground?
Very nice catch!
505 looks like it hit a vehicle on the left side
22megaton It's a burnt ditch light.
The ditch light isn’t even there
@@SouthRVin my opinion, 505 looked like it hit a bird.
7:05 really loud!👍🚞

love
nice
Burlington Northern Rail Fan was
This train really has a broken ditch light?!
Okay from San Diego to San Luis
In the first clip, why didn't the second light flash? Was it broken?
U
What does that mean?
Yes. It's Broken.
Because It's Damaged Now.
Quick question what happend to the other light to the Dash-8?
I think it broke probably because the Dash 8 hit a bird.
Why is metrolink always being pulled by bnsf's?
Because there was a accident one time with a Metrolink cabcar. The cabcar hit a truck driver and the driver died.
One of the causes of the accident is that cabcar had a design flaw. And that point one, BNSF locos pull most metrolinks.
Mr. AWESOME!!! Well, They could've used the F59PHI or their MP36-3C. BNSF train crashes are very rare, so you got a point.
11:06 my part favorite and cool
In the first train, was that biker INSANE? The grade crossing barrier was closed, and he ignored it and crossed. How stupid of him.
14:47 what is that noise?
22megaton Electric sound from the crossing electric box.
22megaton sounds like a cricket
why do engines get overhauled and how will 462 get to beech groove
+Tyler Clark engines get overhauled because they need major repairs or they're old and they just want to replace some old parts, repaint the loco, etc. 462 gets to beech grove by being pulled on the southwest chief
+Amtrak 6903 Train Productions thanks
0:49 "Oh look a penny!"
Well you know what they say
Bruh!!!!!!
I would've chased that guy down and knocked him out for that. Just the way he looked up at the 505 engineer all smug like "Haha!!!".
did anyone notice a broken light on the first train
We all did
I mean...I guess you can say the light...ditched
Hehe railroad puns
I LOVE YOU YOUR THE BEST!❤🧡💛💚💜🗯💕💞💗💝💘💓💞💞💓❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What's with the ditch light it's out
I really want the metrolink train to go without a bnsf train
On 15:45 I took that train
Stephanie Aldana What about it?
RailfanJojo she ment she rode that train
metrolink runs the weirdest trains!
How are they weird?
+MrCsxtrain I just find it weird that they would stick a BNSF locomotive in front of a cab car. It seems like a waste of power, unless the cab cars weren't working for whatever reason.
+MrCsxtrain Also, that "double" train at 7:47 seems odd.
Luke Malin They got to do what they got to do
+Luke Malin the cabcars arent workin. And they got rid of the bombaliar cabcars
i love trains]
booyay
11:06 is the best shot
505 looks like it hit a bird on the left side.
3:55 so good
also what is a hybird K5LA
A Hybrid K5LA is a K5LA with the 3A bell replaced by a 3 bell.
K5LA Notes: E, G, A, C, E

Why get the motorcycle BNSF Metrolink
0:34 why do people do that that should be illegal
