AWESOME!!!!!! Alton!!! I live just off Segerstrom the next street north!!!! Since I'm "between jobs", I hear this train come and go every week-day from around 8am-9am!!! This is SO C-O-O-L!!!!!!!
Nice catch trains232. train232 if you want to see my video on youtube the title is upy in downey. btw nice catch. upy unit 639 passes in downey c@. ( :
I would like to see more vids of local jobs too in orange county. Its best to tape the most you can before they take out service and eventually the tracks.
Nice horn set on that lead unit-- did you notice the horns on the GP38-2 are mounted over on the right side of the cab instead of in the middle (must be 'cool' for the engineer, right on top of his head LoL!!). At least they have cleaned up that 639 engine-- I've seen pics of it before and it was extremely heavily tagged with graffiti... you can still see a few of the white graffiti remnants around the UP on the side in that last shot. Nice GENSET unit too!!
It all depends on what BNSF has down for a high tonnage quota. The 2 Geeps that haul the La Mirada local are enough to haul the high tonnage quota for that train down the mainline.

Locals are fun to watch since there is lots of switching going on. Your video is also very good. I enjoyed it.

Old SP horn on an old SP engine that UP bought and re-painted.

Very hard core. The UP train has an SP horn on it.
CoastStarlight11 2 years ago
IT's probably an old SP unit.

the engine/car ratio is way out of whack, but not as bad as the la mirada local with 2 engines and 3 cars

That's what I was thinking...seems like a waste of fuel if you ask me.
