@rg23x cool. or noisy?

[Spokker]

They have one MP36 to row the broken MP36.

[singwith]

I have seen this consist four times and wonder why they did not send it back to the CMF.

Can it go twice as fast? ;) haha There have been some double headed Capitols up here lately. Few power problems and unstable equipment can do that to ya.

[fixierider97]

I havent even seen any doubleheaders lately

[singwith]

well, I understand that these F59phls are more than 10 years old but MP36s are brand new units!

Nice! What line was this, OC line?

[singwith]

Thanks. that's Antelope Valley Line.

BTW: That windshield glare in the smoke at 00:28 has got to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen!

[FastDashEight]

Seems it's a common practice to double up MP36's, whether with another 36 or some sort of 59. I wonder why...

Also, these are the same two units from your 'Rainy Day Evening at Glendale Depot - 1/20/10' vid.

I remember a time when a double headed Metrolink train use to be a rare thing that railfans would go kookoo over, hahah

[singwith]

Yea, I have seen the same units running on the valley line three times already.

[GregInCalifornia]

Nice shot!

[singwith]

Thanks!

[UPHeritage]

Nice catch Snuffy, one of those units must be dead if their a pushing a 3 car set.

[singwith]

[Amtrak458]
