I fought through commute traffic and arrived at Oakland, California just in time to catch the UP Special stroll into the street running section at Jack London Square. I then chased it around the Port of Oakland.

  • so Union Pacific has their own passenger service?

  • @56yuoi: Not quite, since the general public usually can't ride their train.

  • Awesome!! 5 stars

  • Just posted another video of the same Special coming out of the old Oakland Mole. Thanks for watching and for your comments!

  • Pardon me, but what is the Oakland Mole?

  • That is one cool train, and one weird intersection!! Only thing close to this in Canada is in Brampton, Ontario

  • thats cool how the tracks r in the middle of the street!! it like the train is a car!

  • Yes and no, these cars do not have H.E.P. capabilities when running behind Amtrak (well except for two as noted below) but do have HEP connection to their own UPP generator cars (shown as "the Hunchback" car in this video) as well as limited independent generator capabilities when running without a generator car.

  • no i caught the up special this weekend without one

  • Good footage, is rare to me to see that General Electric engines with passenger cars.
