- This is another cabride video but this is an Limited A service so we made different stops then my other trains I recorded. This engineer was so good with blowing the horn compared to my last few trains so it was so fun listening. I hope you enjoy it and PLEASE like and subscribe if you haven't yet and if you liked the video!!
I actually prefer the Cabride videos because it gives me the opportunity to see how much has been done with the electrification of CalTrain!
Same
Yes.
Same!
The best American carbide video so far. Amazing and clear footage
Aww thanksssss!!!
I"m very proud of calTrain for doing this to their system!!!!!!!
Video also gives a fantastic perspective of the grade separation challenges CalTrain and HSR face.
Schöne Filmfahrt. Das erinnert mich an meinen Besuch in California 1989, als ich mit Amtrak herumreiste und auch die Strecke San Jose - San Francisco gefahren bin. Greetings from Switzerland
Thank you !! From France where we are in love with trains !!
Wow! Really amazing video showing the ride!
Thanks! It is fun and awesome to do these cabrides 😊
Vidéo très appréciable. Une ligne qui se modernise où je pense que l'électrification sera la bienvenue. Sue le point visuel, c'est très agréable de découvrir votre Californie qui fait réver.
I just came across your video . Enjoying the passing scenery . Feels like I’m truly on it. I’ll subscribe. Greetings from San Antonio, Texas.
Thank you! And thank you for watching and for the greeting from Texas!!
I grew up very near the California Avenue station. This is the first I'm seeing of the catenary.
Amtrak's Northbound Coast Starlight splits off the Peninsula Corridor to the right at New Hall Yard just north of Santa Clara Station. (6:37)
Awesome. Thanks for the ride 🙂
Your welcome
Dude... YOUR CHANNEL IS BLOWING UP!! You already have 173 subs!
I can't even believe it myself but yes it is blowing up
Good Video
So your trains are like your cars...
You drive on the wrong side 😉😉
Love from England 😂
Something that I'd really appreciate; down the road, is coverage of the Tamien Station once the overhead catenary is installed.
Yea
Nice!!!
Thanks!
I've lived in the south bay for about sixteen years and never taken a trip on Cal Train,will have to now.
Oh nice! Yeah Caltrain is very interesting and cool, give it a try!
Great work. I've shot video many times from trackside on the Peninsula. I'm trying to figure out why there's limited auto traffic since April 14 is a Wednesday.
I would love to see THE ACELA WITH ABOUT 5 VENTURE CARS FOR HI SPEED SERVICE ON THIS LINE.....WOW!!!
Maybe one day
Wow.
🤤🤗, I always visit the familiar places 🤤
The electrification is nearing completion 👍🏾
Yes it’s almost done.
I'm actually shocked such things exists in USA.
@@Terepin64 Oh
belle vidéo qui me permet de voir une ligne moderne. J'ai vu que les aiguillages n'étaient pas ordinaires. Peut-on avoir des précisions ou des documents sur le fonctionnement de ces aiguillages ? Autre question: comment fonctionne l'embarquement des personnes handicapées ?
Love the electrification
I don’t
@@BayAreaTrackside why?
@@southmainerailfan2781 it’s just making everything worse, the poles ruin our shots and electric trains are not too good, we’ll you guys’ ACS-64 we’re fire but the Caltrain sets looks so bad
nice video!
Thanks!
welcome
Your not in the cab your at the front door. Anyway great video Keep it up, thank you.
Thanks! And yes I am in the front window

Hi, why do oncoming trains flash? And why are there two more red ones under the green signal? Greetings from Czechia.
(And I commend you for electrification. :-) )
The "ditch lights" flash as required by law/regulations to help warn people who may be near the tracks. They're also usually active with the horn or bell is being sounded. The multiple signal lights are too allow for numerous potential signal indications. I'm not familiar with the specifics
@@ckildegaard Thank you for the clarification, we don't know that here in Europe. We use similar flashing signals rather to warn of an oncoming train (sign 'stop, stop by all means', flashing upper light and lower right red light).
Nice view from the locomotive. Especially when you are higher up in the cab.
Thanks, but I’m not in the locomotive. I’m in the cabcar front window that anyone can get to, not crew cab too
I am curious. Any idea why the train switched to the opposite running track?
It's due to single tracking, it's when they're doing construction near tracks so trains have to run on only one side of the track
@@BayAreaTrackside Sounds like Better Late Then Never when that viaduct was being worked on? The bigger engines all blamed Sir Topham Hat's workman for delays. For some odd reason I didn't care for that episode when I was little but now I have a fondness for it much older.
when this video was filmed was Caltrain in the process of switching over to electric trains with overhead lines like they have on the Metra electric line and south shore RR commuter line ( both serving parts of the Chicago area)?
They've been putting up the wiring and the trainsets are being delivered, but they won't be in service until 2024
Only Cateneries No wires?
I’m wondering if the eletrification will reduce the time between San Jose to San Fran due to train will accelerate faster. The top speed will remain the same, I heard. maybe shave off 5-10 minutes?
Maybe. Because I also heard they’re cutting some stations off
Hi there from Australia. I had so many questions but glad I read through the comments and picked up some answers. Thanks for Station names. What station was just before Belmont?
Obviously a lot of upgraded track and ballast and tags or sleepers?
At New Hillsdale were the viaducts fairly new...formerly lower level with level crossings?
What is the speed limit for cars on that freeway near San Bruno? They were certainly moving!
Bayshore was that the only station with a (lift)elevator?
Be good to do another video when all the catenary and wires are done, even with the electric "pullers" hehe.
Is Caltrain privately owned or Government?
Very first overhead power I have seen on US railways. Used to the third (power) rail etc.
Sorry for all the questions, it could have been a lot worse, had I not checked the comments first, hehe.
Don't have answers to most of these as I'm not too familiar with Caltrain's trackage, but I can say that Caltrain is governed by a "Joint Powers Board" made up of the governments in the counties it serves. The actual engineers ("drivers" to the rest of the world, I guess) and conductors are from a private company contracted to run the system.
How did you get this video? When I film from the old gallery cars that front window is usually plastered with bugs and grime.
Oh that’s sad, I just got it like normal, it was clean
Is it really necessary to have three sets of lights per signal for such a low number of trains per track? We use one set and have a train every ten minutes...
The engineers don't wave from the trains, anymore not like they back in 1954.
Good to see the electrification is on its way. Now this video was made almost a year ago. So how is it now? Are the electric trains already running here?
Nope the electrified trains are planned to run in 2024
@@BayAreaTrackside Ok thanks for the update!
A very interesting and well made video. I would like to ask if anyone knows of a channel on a FREIGHT train lines that have a driver who record cabrides. I have never managed to find one from the United States or Canada. Thanks in advance!
Nice video! I find it hard to understand that it is nessecary to do all this ringing and honking when the crossings have both red lights and gates...
Thanks! The US railroads has a rule to honk the horn 4 times per crossing to warn people.
You’d be surprised by the dumbasses that still try to cross the tracks when the gate is down
@@mattk9644 You don't realize how real that is. I have seen it with my own eyes coming home from high school. Very saddening.
@@hornshowrailfan2554 exactly man I guess people are so impatient like is worth your life over a 10 seconds to 2 minutes? Smh saddening indeed
You need to patent the VR version of these videos.... ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Kelly Kelly ❤❤
So what will they do with their diesels consist once they start electric service??
Sell them or scrap I guess
The f40s will be retired 900,901,902,903,904 my fav 905,906,907,908,909,910,911,912,913,914,915,9169,917,918,919,920,921,922 maybe will be in 2022 or 2023 or 24
Would anyone know if this could of been the original track that UP or SP passenger service back when it came into SF ?
This should’ve been, but they have changed some of these tracks at least. Cool huh
Yes, this is the original alignment. I used to ride along here starting in the mid-60s (when we moved to San Mateo). Just north of San Bruno there used to be a branch line heading out to Tanforan Park and, I think, as far as Daly City (maybe not quite that far). All industrial, of course, although I think there would be passenger trains back in the days when there was still a racetrack there.
le klaxon est beaucoup utilisé par les trains aux USA!
Front view as well.
Yea
This kind of looks like Poland after communism. Man, how awesome would America would be with a proper rail network, including high speed rail.
How do you get invited into the cab?
I didn’t
For Caltrain, there is a front window in the Cabcar that you can see the front view. I film out from there
Fix the time stamps 1 (Depart Mountain Vie(n) 2 D(è)part Menlo Park 3 You forgot to add Arrive Belmont
I didn’t make em youtube made it on their own
A lot of electrification is done. The sooner .the better
Me personally am oppose the electrification project lol
I don't know the name of the Interlocking @ 6:37
S.L. CP coast
Why blow the horn when he is ON the crossing?
It’s a rule for all US railroad to do a certain horn sequence through crossings. 2 long, 1 short, 1 long
(Except for quiet zones or for certain railroads they won’t do this)
The last blast of the pattern must be held until the front of the train fully occupies the crossing.
Uma ferrovia muito organizada e limpa aqui no Brasil e uma porcaria do sujeira e mato pelos trilho
Where are the homeless?
Wait what?
🤣🤣🤣
All that horn blowing must be annoying for passengers.
It might be. Be I doubt so and for us foamers it’s a big treat, we can’t expect more than this
Blowing the horn? Thanks for the warning. I am not watching this. Bye.
Wtf nooo I’m not in the actual cab
Nice!!!
Thanks!
