Fullerton Railfanning 1/17/09 Part 2: From the Bridge

On Saturday, me and the gang decided to take a day trip down to Fullerton for a day of train watching and what a day it was. The day was packed with plenty of trains from morning to evening. This is Part 2, the second part in the series. This includes all the freight action, all BNSF stacks and Z trains, from the pedestrian bridge over tracks 1, 2, and 3. Enjoy and please be sure to check out Parts 1 and 3.

Love these views from "the bridge". Especially like your shots after 5:00 with the train going thru the crossover and then the curve, with the signals in the foreground. Also like that next shot in the evening with the station lights etc! Great video!

This series is excellent!

I love these SoCal vids for several reasons. First, the volume and types of trains are great. Second, the quality is fantastic. And third, the scenery, weather, etc., makes me very envious! We're buried in snow up here and it's cold!!

Can you answer a question? What's the significance of the flashing searchlight signal seen in the background with the first freight train?

Thanks again!

Mike
