Awesome video Spencer! 2:38 , that was me, the other railfanner that was with you.

[@spencerhughes2255]

Thank you! I remember when you pulled up! Didn't wanna distract you since it was that final countdown moment. Hope your shot turned out well!

[@SoCalOCRailfan]

Glad to see you’re doing good catch of these P42DC’s on the Surfliner.

[@HarborSubHughley]

Sweet video Spencer

[@rionno7294]

Dominating video Spencer!

[@NotARailfan]

I glad you also caught 148 with an amazing engineer! I caught it at Fullerton. And nice video!

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

I saw your video on that, well done!

[@PatrickDoran2319]

I wish the P42 could be donated to a museum

[@mayranck3817]

Good morning Spencer. I took the train from Irvine to carpinteria. Stopped every stop, finally arrived in carpinteria. Fun ride. California sure has a variety of scenic sites. Merry Xmas 🎄😊

[@halorailfan27]

The good times are back when I watched your videos back in 2016! love this!

[@GamingRailfanner]

When you see a spencer upload
*It's a good day*

[@jackchen7003]

Hearing the P42 horn on the Surfliner brings so much nostalgia. That horn reminds me so much of California when I used to live there

[@Izaiah_wizz]

Another banger

[@GRFP6903]

Love it

[@djmasterty2309]

This is awesome!

[@Railviation]

caught 148 last night and thank goodness i did because it is no longer on the surfliner today lol rip

[@teddyguerrero1235]

Nice video! How long has it been since a p42 has been on the surfliner?

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

I think it has been a while, but as far as I know, the P42 was brought to that Surfliner train because of something wrong with the charger.

[@SDRailfan]

@@user-TheBestRailfanSomething was wrong with the cabcar

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

Maybe both

[@railfaninacar]

Hi

[@threepea1151]

Spencer, why were the p42s leading the surfliner now? SC44 failures?

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

I think that was the case here.

[@SoCalOCRailfan]

The P42 was used because no other SC44 was compatible to help service an Amtrak train.

[@Railviation]

Cab Car* failure

[@SoCalOCRailfan]

@@Railviation that was the other issue but not the main

[@user-TheBestRailfan]

It may be both.

[@dnoel11]

That horn just tells you the sc44 and acs64 are siblings!

[@mistybaker7671]

I miss amtrak F59PHI
