Coaster Commuter Train 25th Anniversary

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 9 ก.ย. 2024
  • For the last 25 years, the Coast Express Rail, more commonly known as Coaster, has served travelers along San Diego County's coastal rail corridor. A lot has changed over the last 25 years and even more changes are set to occur over the next decade. But for now, let's look back and watch over an hour's worth of Coaster trains that I've filmed over the years!
    CoasterFan2105 is the home of all sorts of train and railroad related video content. Stop by every Friday at 9 AM Pacific time for an all new railroading adventure and be sure to check out all of my social media pages @coasterfan2105 for even more great railroad content. Thanks, and I'll see you down the line!

    You can definitely tell Coaster was so much better back in the day before they had the Chokes. You even managed to film 2104 with the M5! Great job on that!
    Also, another note: Not only is Coaster buying the Siemens Chargers, but they're also planning to replace the coach fleet too. With the way things are now, I fear they may very likely end up buying the Bombardier Crash Energy Management Bi-Levels. If you know GO Transit and Sounder, you know what nightmare I'm talking about.

      The Chargers are expected to start entering service later this year. It's questionable as to whether or not the F40PHs and F59PHIs will live to see another New Years.
      No new coaches have officially been ordered yet, but they have announced plans to do so. We'll have to see where times takes it.

      I don't know. Just, they are certainty not getting rebuilt.
      Also, as of now, it is 100% confirmed that Coaster is indeed buying CEM Cab Cars. The fate of the Old Cab Cars is yet to be determined.

    I live in Poway so I hopped on the bus route 945 towards Sabre Spring/Rancho Penesquitos station, hopped on the Rapid 235 to Escondido, hopped on the Sprinter to Oceanside, hopped on Coaster to Downtown San Diego, hopped on the Rapid 235 again towards Rancho Bernardo then hopped on the bus route 944 towards back home. I had a fun, relaxing time, & the wait time wasn’t that long for each of the buses either. It didn’t matter because IT WAS MY DAY OFF ANYWAYS & the round trip ticket only cost me $15 all day.
