That Amtrak is the Wolverine, train 351, amazingly it still keeps its symbol and name to this day. That detector at 482 is still there and still sounds the same.
Hot dang! This is the first video of #5508 (the trailing SD60M) I've ever caught. One of, if not my first rail fanning memories is of that unit with a UP SD40-2 and another SD60M in New Hampshire on a coal train. I was maybe 2 or 3 then.
Nice catch of the Amtrak GP-40TC!

I wonder where the 1671 was going with the coil car on the Amtrak Line?

Oh cool, 1671! I ran that one a lot when working for CR. It was based out of Lansing, MI for a while.

I loved those monster TV trains that CR used to run, and you can't beat the thumping of those old GEs. Thanks for sharing.
