Railfanning San Clemente, Ca - Amtrak & Metrolink Trains, 7/13/11

There are a lot of scenic areas along the Surfline. This stretch of rail passes by many beaches, bluffs, and cool scenic areas along Southern California's coastline. San Clemente is one of these cool scenic spots to watch some trains go by!! I caught 8 trains passing through, most of them being Amtrak Surfliners. Here's the train info:

Watch in HD!!


Train #1...F59PHI #464 with its newer hybrid K5LA horn, passes by leading Amtrak #572.

Train #2...Amtrak #775 passes through the San Clemente Pier station with Cabcar #6907 leading. Only a select few Amtrak trains stop here.

Train #3...Amtrak #774 passes through one of the many pedestrian crossings along San Clemente.

Train #4...Amtrak #579 cruises by with an awful K5LA on Cabcar #6952.

Train #5...Metrolink #641 passes by with an all Hyundai Rotem car set.

Train #6...Amtrak #578 slowly cruises by San Clemente with F59PHI #451 leading.

Train #7...Cabcar #626 leads Metrolink Train #609 alongside the pedestrian dirt path.

Train #8...Amtrak #583 makes its way through San Clemente. Cabcar #6953 leads the train past Calafia State Beach.


Thanks for Watching!!
