Socal Rails Video Compilation: May - June 2012: Amtrak, Metrolink, and Coaster

[@CoasterFan2105]

No problem, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@filipstambolic179]

Good vid!😊

[@Bobcatonline]

Great video and much appreciated. Reminds me of my first trip to Santa Barbara which, I was convinced, was taken backwards. It was only later that I found out that those trains could be controlled from either end and, in my case, the baggage/cab car. (I gather that locals call it the cabbage car!) Thanks for the memories - ah, happy days.

[@CoasterFan2105]

Thanks!

[@CoasterFan2105]

Quite a rarity for me these days!

[@CoasterFan2105]

Probably. The reason that the first shot in the video shook like that was because I was set up on a mound of loose packed dirt.

[@AODProds]

Great shots Mike!

[@CoasterFan2105]

I just set it up relatively low angle on the platform.

[@CoasterFan2105]

Oh, you mean the one before the coaste... Yeah, that's the Chief.

[@AirchimeLTDproductions174]

CoasterFan2105 wow 2307 sounds nothing like it does even with the choke nowdays Mike. Man, Coaster really is not as musical as it once was. Even Amtraks F59s sound horrendous now, except for 450. And now that Eds gone half the engineers on Coaster are pretty weak.

[@AmtrakCal462]

Wow! An actual Surfline based video from you! I can't believe it! ;-) Nice variety of locations!!

[@willberestartingthischanne9984]

Was 2308 or 2310 leading that deadhead?

[@CoasterFan2105]

I believe it was 2308.

[@ryansrailfanning]

Ok thanks CoasterFan2105. 2308 really sucks. It's like that trolley horn at 3:55.
