FAST !!! AMTRAK TRAINS

I UNDERSTAND, These are not the fastest trains in the world, but they still HAUL in Southern California! In this video you'll witness 50+ shots, of mostly Pacific Surfliner sets.. & occasional Amfleet & Coast Starlight trains. All footage I shot during 2012 - 2015.

“Wow, this is a great perspective! I don’t see why EVERYONE doesn’t record these things head on-“ *BLAM* But yes, it is a pretty great capture

[@koreanjesus8185]

@@connergoessupersonic Yes, I know a lot of people record the trains head on, but this particular shot at 1:25 stands out above all the rest for me. The angles and smooth zoom-out were perfect. I have watched countless train videos across many different channels, and that one is my favorite. I also love the trains running through snow compilations.

As european, it´s really impresive to me how the trains are tilting... moving from one side to another at that "modest" fast speed, I mean, I don´t know if the suspensions are soft, if the conditions of the railway are poor, or maybe both including the fact that those trains look pretty heavy (two locos for pushing and pulling that "short" trains are too much), but I´ve never seen any train in Europe even at twice the speed tilting so much.

[@WatchDragon]

a lot of the track is shared by freight trains, freight moves a lot and knocks the tracks out of alignment over time. American freight trains are a completely different level than Europe's. its one of those time vs money things, move slower, but get more use out of the tracks, rather than build specific passenger rail lines
