You have a horizontal compression issue with this upload. Old School indeed.

Glad to see there's no diesel stinkpot hanging on the rear of the train, ruining the nostalgic effect.

I didn't get a great shot of the dome -- 'cause I focused too much on the engine as the train approached. My best shot of the dome is at about 1:28 into this video (as the train moves away). If you want me to e-mail you a still shot of the best frame, let me know ...

I had my head stuck out the door of the dome car on the other side of you when it went by.

Cool; My wife said that she saw someone with a red hat between the cars. Looking at the video it looks like we can see someone peeking out of the dome car door. Is that you?

[TrainDr101]

No, I had a black hat.

I remember taking this train down to San Diego when I lived out in the LA area after the war. Brings back memories, good and bad!

Great still shots, cool effects, and music -- too?? Nice touch! I was there and it was pretty neat to see!
