so was the real engineer in the the f59phi and the conductor was in the cab car just operating the horn and bell? cuz it sounded like the f59phi was honking 2
Ya I agree, most of them do suck. However, I do like 457 and 462. They're pretty good! I would take a P42dc over an F59phi anyday!! Not to mention an F40PH too!!!
damn right that was one of the loudest
k5la's ive ever heard. i remember in santa barbara when that 231 use to make me jump lol!
Great catch!
Nice shot! Did you get my message about this train; is that why you went?
Fantastic camerawork dude!

@AmtrakCal462 Is that how you found out, or did you already know about the private cars before I sent the message?
@AmtrakCal462 so then do conductors sorta have to be trained on that stuff?
Thanks
Thanks! Ya i got your message

455 is probably the only loco that still has a great horn all others f59phi's suck!
455 was the very first F59 I ever saw in person.
Yes that is correct
451?
As would I...The Amtrak F40PH for me!! Probably #231
Ya 451 is good too
No, i heard first through you
i'll take the f40 over all
Ya...Not hard, pretty much blow the horn and radio to the engineer.
Thanks
