Santa Fe 3751 at Full Steam Thunder with Whistle Blowing Through Carlsbad in 2010

Sunday May 2, 2010 - the San Diegan special heading back to Los Angeles from San Diego's Santa Fe Depot. This was shot at Carlsbad Poinsettia by the Santa Fe 3751 with the silver California Zephyr dome cars in tow. Top speed on this run was 63mph, and this is a great shot with full whistle and thundering steam!

What is it with American train drivers and excessive whistling???

[@joshuametzl1420]

They blow the whistle whenever they go across a grade crossing, two long a short and a long, FRA requirement for safety.

[@johnnyjames7139]

There is no such thing as excessive whistling.

[@chrismiller5198]

I think this was a salute to the trackside fans.
