Amtrak F40PH 340 (Cascades NPCU 90340) By Safeco Field, Seattle

While I was on my trip to see 4449, I got to take a jaunt for a day up to seattle on Amtrak 500. While in seattle, I saw a whole bunch of trains, including BNSF, Amtrak, and Sounder. In this video, Amtrak 506 pulls by safeco as it approaches King Street Station. This is one of my favorite NPCU's that amtrak has, as it's carbody has remained the closest of any of the NPCU's to looking like a real F40PH. Plus, it has an excellent K5LA horn! F59PHI 469. Enjoy!

is it just me, or does the design on the front of the f40ph look like underwear?

[FanOfthePADRES411]

nice catch. 90340 sounds like 2105 a litttle bit.

I love that spot for the horn echo!  Too bad they are building the bridge there, it means the end of the horns.

[AODProds]

Love the echo the K-5LA makes. Sounds great!
