HiDef- Doing the right thing leads to a rarity: AMTK 6951 South - Moorpark, Ca

[GhostFearMe]

that was so sweet of you!!!

[Amtrak6901]

Wonderful thing you did there Brian, if only you still had the like button i'd bet you'd have a lot of them.

[SkeenaPac]

Congratulations and Well Done! Back in CA for the holidays?  Have a healthy, happy and prosperous new year! - James

[AMTK510]

Thank you, James! I'm actually back in CA for good. You do the same! Keep rockin' out those awesome CP videos!

[HyperActive7]

I bet you the next that young man runs into you he'll have his friends with him and they'll treat you to a special dinner. It's about time we hear more stories of people with a heart who are willing to go the extra mile to help somebody out.

[Yoshiisland12345]

It's terrific that you implemented your connections with and knowledge of the local railway infrastructure to help one guy out. Have you ever considered a job in railroading?

[AMTK510]

Thank you. I've considered it. Possibly sometime down the road.

[TexasSteelRails]

Thats thinking outside the box, glad you were able to help

[MiNameIsNash]

A very nice story!!! Congratulations, great catch and Happy new year!!! (I know it was yesterday but I was busy!!)

[AMTK510]

Thanks! Same to you

[maddennis55]

Nice story; it's good that you had the connections to do that!

Now, is it normal for those trains to run with just a single little red marker on the loco like that? Seems it would be hard to see from a distance.

[AMTK510]

Thanks! Yes, only one marker light is lit when the F59PHI's are in Push mode.

Well, that was very nice of you Brian. Good job. You were very kind to that guy and I bet he is very grateful that you helped him.

[hamstertrain18]

nice vid brian you did the right thing to help that guy out good for you.

[Popsdasuss]

Good guy, good for you!

[yusuf6734]

God bless you

[SantaFebuff]

Hmm, one of the maker lights is out.

[AmtrakSurfliner768]

@SantaFebuff Nahh, the F59PHI units only have one. The opposite one in an emergency light and is only triggered by dumping the air completely.

[BWyrick]

@SantaFebuff Not really. The earlier F59PHIs only had the engineer's side marker for when they were on the end of a train. The other side was an emergency strobe like what SP had on the nose of their engines. These would only go off if the train went into emergency braking.

[andross51]

God bless you brian, great helping him! :)

[GenesisSanctuary]

Well done! You did good, and that's great.:)

Five stars to you!*****

[WhistlepostWP]

Great story behind the video. Glad you where able to help someone out...Thanks for using your "track smarts" :)

[AndreiTupolev]

Excellent PR for Amtrak. Much better than 'we must stick to the schedule at all costs' ruthless efficiency.

[sekusel]

Good job! You did the right thing. What goes around comes around.
