Calafia Revisited

I went to the Calafia State Beach two days ago for some railfanning. I was joined by ocrailfanner1995, GlobalRailfan, and AmtrakFan454.
All train information is described in the video.
Let me know which shot you liked best. Thanks!

Where's 800?

@CoasterFan2105 As far as I've heard, it's been in the yard for a few weeks. It was only filling in for a cab car but I think that has since been resolved. I never got a chance to see it. Do you know if it's in use now?

3:34 : Notice the ricks on the tracks.

3: 38 : Notice the train hitting the rocks.

Unseen from this perspective: Brian getting hit by the rock and walking in circles holding his head.

@GlobalRailfan That really hurt! It wasn't too big, but it came fast!

Great video, Brian! It is really cool seeing the trains run alongside beaches.:)

[AmtrakSurfliner768]

@GenesisSanctuary Thanks! I love the beaches most for railfanning, but the marine layer takes forever to burn off.

@AmtrakSurfliner768 You really lucked out there. I've heard stories of people losing an eye due to that. This is why it's a bad idea to put rocks on the tracks. It's not your fault, anyways, those kids down there think that it's an amusement park. IT'S THE REAL WORLD, THEY SHOULD SNAP OUT OF IT!
