  • Taken aboard Surfliner 6452 with SC-44 #2119 leading.Pacific Surfliner is easily the most scenic corridor train in the country. Fantastic views of the crashing waves of the Pacific Ocean through San Clemente and Del Mar Beaches, and views through the Sorrento Valley are underrated as well. Equipment was late coming out of the yard so we ran about 15-20 mins late the whole ride. Top speed of the run is 90 mph with a total run time of 2 hours 54 minutes.

      the BNSF table I used was from many years ago so that explains it. I’m not from the area so I don’t know the best resources. thanks a lot!

      this is probably the most scenic corridor train anywhere in the US, definitely worth taking another trip in person if you can.

    I have a cab ride video of that line. It’s really a busy passenger line. So do you think I’d have an easy time riding the Pennsylvanians rear from Philadelphia to Harrisburg? I’d hate to spend money on a ticket and then not be able to do it.

    • @nathanjiang100
      @nathanjiang100  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I wanted to do a cab ride on the way back but they roped off the few rows so it was really hard to frame the shot well and the angle would have been very narrow. I can't guarantee anything but I did not have any problems shooting rear-views on the Pennsylvanian 3 times over 3 different months with 3 different crews. the conductor came to scan my ticket and asked where my seat was and I sit on the row closest to the rear vestibule and they just stuck the seat check there and didn't bother me. you might get some stares from passengers but you could always mount a suction cup if you don't wanna stand for close to 2 hours.

      @@nathanjiang100 when you say a cab right I guess you’re talking about those Metroliner control cars. If you wanna try to do one from Philadelphia to New York, try train 652.
