What years was this?

I think it was in 03. Not sure.

This train is on the westbound track and the closest track is the eastbound track. They run trains on the opposite tracks on donner. Similar to say driveing in the U.S. versus driveing in Europe.

Ya, I wonder why they let the passengers on the other side of the train, and not station side. They had to wait for the train to move to get to the station.

That is like weard. They have these "no trespassing" signs over there and then they have passengers walk on the tracks as they drop them off. odd. Also at the Reno station it is double track but both the east and west bound Zephyr's drop passengers off at the platform.

Ya, very odd what UP will have Amtrak do these days.
