Amtrak Coast Starlight #14 Puts On Horn Show Through Hanford

Set To High Quality

Taken 06/22/08 © SF3751

Amtrak's Coast Starlight #14 passes through Hanford on the way to Sacramento. This train and train #11 (sister southbound train) ran a re-route today over Tehachapi pass and down through the central valley due to Union pacific MOW on the Coast line. Near the end of the video you can see a person off to the left who is standing next to the tracks, that would be bnsfc44 also getting a shot.
