I happened to be in the front of the line at the southern Buena Vista crossing in Burbank at around 5:30 PM and saw this come down the tracks and pass by. Nice to see the start of its day!
You and me shot the same train but on different days. I have shot trains at most of the spots in this video over the years since I used to live along the Coast Line for almost 20 years.
i saw this train here in Vegas last year. what is it used for? (it would be pretty awesome if UP did passenger service, methinks. but idk if that would be a money-maker..)
the domes are gone all that's on here are Council Bluff, Fox River, and the Generator Cars

@geomodelrailroader: FYI, this special ran back in February, so it should be somewhat different from the Engineer Special that's running now.

The only way anyone will ever have a hope in hell of riding that train is to fly to Omaha and point your anal cavity to the UP Glass Tower.

Awesome video. It was an awesome train. I was lucky seeing how I was driving up the 101 today and I was able to catch it at King City and Bradley.
