They’ve been running them a lot for revenue service for some reason these last couple weeks. 852, 856, 868, and 873. I’ve been able to commute with 3 out of the 4 recently.
I 've said it once , I 've said it twice Amtrak and Metro link should have the F40PH , F59PH and F59PHI ' s and the MP 36 PHM ' s ( they were once SD 50 's rebuilt by MPI ) rebuilt for they are more reliable and will out last what Amtrak and Metro Link Uses today ! Long live Metro Link F40PH #800 !
Yes some of them were used to build MP36 's the SD 50 TOTAL BODY WAS REMOVED ! THEN THE REMAINING FRAME WAS STRIPPED DOWN TO NOTHING ! THE THREE AXLE TRUCKS WERE EXCHANGED WITH FOUR AXLE TRUCKS ! THE PRIME MOVER WAS REPLACED WITH AN EMD 645 -F3 PRIME MOVER ! EVERYTHING ELSE WAS , INCLUDING THE BODY WAS BUILT BY MPI ( MORRISON KNUDSON ) NOW KNOWN AS WEBTEC !
@@AVeryRandomPerson The early one's were built this way ! And the newer versions were totally EMD KIT'S ! LET'S GIVE THANKS TO THE SD50 's that gave there soul's !

@@AVeryRandomPerson the F40s were built from 1976 - 1992.
@@d64tv06 The F40PHRs were originally SDP40Fs, built in 74/75. MK/MPI builds of F40s continued until 2006
Why did that one car decide to just go around the crossing gates
Nice video ;) On 4:48 doubled Metrolink trains and on 8:14 another doubled Metrolink trains :O
the f59’s will be missed
R.I.P 1995 - 2021

Perfect catches perfect railroad crossing your videos are perfect
Where are the Bombardier coaches of Metrolink we like them back I’m sad they are in Caltrain😢
27:44 those mechanical bells got replaced by electronic bells
It looks like most of the southbound trains are deadheading into LAUS, right?
Scax 800 is back in service
@FoolishMortal01 Metrolink thinks it's ugly and not useful anymore.
the f40’s are siting at the yard in the LA River close to Union Station as well with F59/phi with an abandoned cabcar that has some missing windows
Bro what is the police doing at the bottom and the ambulance bro👇🤨
15:50 Those of you waiting for the F40PH (800)
I remember seeing a triple set (really rare I think) on my way to a pizza place after a baseball game
I know that place is north main at brige
Nice
