Great! One of these days, I will put up video that I took from the train on Cajon at the end of a transcontinental trip from D.C. to L.A. This was back in the pre-dome days of April, 1999.
This was a real surprise! My dad and I were setting up at Sullivan's Curve and we didn't notice him coming downgrade on Track 1. We thought it was the Southwest Chief.
