    0:23 There's 617, the Cab Car that was involved in the Chatsworth Collision. A lot of people actually think it was scrapped, but nope. There it is, still extant, even if not in good condition.

    I am very obsessed with a bilevel Bombardier cab coaches
    Is the fact like they match the rest of the bombardier coaches
    In fact I like to see them come back

      I know. Why did Metrolink have to do that to innocent cab cars?

    • @AmtrakFan6905
      @AmtrakFan6905  Год назад +3

      Metrolink got rid of them because since they had flat cabs, they would be too dangerous if they suffered a head on collision with a car.

    SUPERMEGA AWESOME! Unfortunately, the bombardiers are going away sooner or later depending on Metrolink’s decisions 💀

    In Russia all their commuter trains are new and the very old are beautifully restored and put the good use, the Russians don't let anything go to waste their Subway buildings are immaculate not one speck of trash, the old 1800 buildings are beautifully restored, it seems almost anywhere in Russia you go people are paying with their cell phones.

    Metrolink's Moorpark yard has a few old cab cars in good condition stored there. They haven't been moved in years.

      I Didn’t know there was a yard there. I’ll have to see it. Do they have graffiti?

      They actually don't have graffiti. I ride the VC line every Monday so I see that yard often as I ride by.

      That’s pretty cool. I’m going to pass there some time soon to railfan Ventura so I’ll probably stop by there

      I found those cab cars in a metrolink yard close to San Bernardino Depot on google Earth but they looked like regular bi-levels. I just happened to be recording on that train and it passed those cab cars. There were also some New Jersey Transit cars there too.

      However, I did know that there would be cars there but not those really old ones that Metrolink doesn’t use anymore
