- All aboard! In this video, we take a look at Metrolink, the commuter railroad for the greater Los Angeles area. Metrolink began service on October 26th, 1992 and since then, it has carried thousands of commuters a day over 7 different lines passing through Los Angeles, Ventura, Orange, San Bernardino, Riverside, and San Diego counties. We'll take a look at Metrolink trains on all 7 of these lines over the last several years.

Happy 25th Anniversary Metrolink
Wow its been out since the 80s. Pretty impressive for a commuter train.
*October 26, 1992
...
Metrolink #872 has a sick horn, better than the ones the others have!
4:42 nice to see an old coach in the new livery!
8:17 Wow! nice to see a borrowed utah frontrunner single level coach!
10:04 that mechanical beel sounds unusual! Today, they're more common out in the country on a preserved line!
10:38 what type of horn does that cab car have? it sounds good on it!
12:35 nice catch of a doubleheader on the end!
the coolest thing I find about this railraod, is the horns they use! Usually, they're fitted on American-built export locos!
Thanks! The horn at 10:38 is a Nathan K2.

6:17 also has an old car in new livery!
15:01 and 12:35 are the double heads!
@@CoasterFan2105
Wait do they still operate there old cab cars?
I remember when I saw my first and only Metrolink train back in 2008 when my family went to Los Angeles for a vacation.
Well I remember seeing a Metrolink service with a BNSF GE leading. (I think. Idk what locomotive type but it was a BNSF.)

HAPPY 500K ON CHRISTMAS
Metrolink's a part of my childhood. Happy 25th Anniversary Metrolink.
That's quite a collection of F59s in action. One more year and they will be gone and replaced by the F125s. Also great footage of the old cab cars
I still see them parked in California. Idk if they operate but I have seen one run a route a while back
0:09 i love the horn
I Love That Diesel Train So Much!!!
Nice Video. Metrolink is one of My Favorite Commuter Rail along with Coaster and Tri Rail.
Thanks, Alan!
TommyPickles Fan1992 is cool
@@CoasterFan2105 16:31 this clip is my favorite in this video because this unit has the original K5LA rather than those ugly sounding P2 horns
@@nolantherailfan5048p2s aren't bad.
Ahh the days of the Bombardier cabs and UTA cars i miss em
Me too
Sounder still uses bombardier cars
@@xxmajesticsailorjupiterxx7951 And also The Coaster.
They are still used ya bot
And Caltrain
My favorite sounding horn is at 16:24
Aww yeah that’s sick
it a K5LA
@@audreyclaire419 yeah it’s so much better than that garbage ass p2 horn
Happy 25th Anniversary Metrolink.
Congratulations to Mike and Metrolink😊😄🚄
Those trains just sound so beautiful when they move down the track! Great video Mike!
Thanks! Glad you liked it!
The metrolink is my favorite train!
You are the world's best railfan ever!
7:04 was great night at Fullerton station
Awesome video. Cant wait for the Tier 4 locomotives to be in service. Also the AV line has rrally nice scenery since the line runs along the creek, but cant beat the OC line along the coast.
You want these back now don't you
Happy 25th anerversarry metrolink!
18:40 my favorite vid
They Started regular service of the new locomotives today!
Metrolink,May you live long and prosper!
8:56 Never Forget Metro-link's are sharing a yard
Nmgdii
I'm hearing the sound of the horns on some of these cab cars, and I think: And they say the horn on the F125 sounds weird!
Happy 25th anniversary Metrolink I love you Metrolink
What Metrolink needs to build: Coachella Line and Victor Valley Line
Agreed
@@fizzypopt128 ١١
Also they should build a AV Line Extension to Bakersfield to meet with Caltrain
@@josiah_crazy7621 agreed
ALRIGHT!!!!! Our favorite southern California Commuter Rail System has it's 25TH ANNIVERSARY!!!! I LOVE IT THANKS +CoasterFan2105 I see my favorite locomotives in there ha ha!!!! :) Also by the way i got some info. a few days ago and Metrolink F59PHI locomotives 885, 886, and my personal favorite 887 are sadly retired or so I assume.....:( so....yeah
886 and 887 are back in service 😎. The retired ones are. 866, 877, 853, 871, 867, and 872. 885, 863, and 859 are out of service but have a chance.
My Personal Favorite Metrolink F59PHI Is 885
Lovely shot at the end :) great video as always
Thank you very much, Dennis!
Coasterfan I like your style
It's funny because my regional transportation company is called Metrolinx. They are owned by the provincial government and built mass transit in all of the major cities. They also operate commuter trains and double decker commuter buses. Right now they are building an LRT system in my city.
Also, 858 was featured in There Goes a Train, which took place during Metrolink's third year of operation (1994)
They need to have the electrification constructed on the Metrolink's tracks for SoCal also.
Another great video! The footage beginning at 3:17 was the best segment! Right along the ocean!
16:28 that ones my favorite because it has the original K5LA
8:39 I missed when Orange didn’t have a quiet zone
happy 25th anniversary metrolink
TROLLEYFAN 2052 Same to you!
x тғw same to you and i need more subscribers
Awesome video glad for Metrolink!
Metra160 Yeah!
Epic Video As Always Mike!! Glad Metrolink has Come a long Way!
I like train number 862 sadly I haven't get to ride it I'm from Texas train 862 is in California
Finally someone who agrees with me on the best metrolink loco. 859 is a close second though
I'm not a fan of those ugly sounding P2 horns Metrolink has due to the original K5LA's being too loud
@@Amrepdude499 yesssss
Beautiful video bravo pour
Epic!
Thanks!
They need to put an old "Railroad Crossing" sign just like what Caltrain has with red LED black thing on the RailRoad Crossing gates.
Wish all the rolling stock had a common paint scheme. The mixture of two styles looks dorky.
Ikr
What if metro link divided trains into A line with use bombardier car and b line which use Hyundai rotem cars
It doesn’t look dorky: it looks drab!!
4:40 The B line is the Hyundai Rotem Locomotive and Coaches, while, 4:18 The A Line is all the other locomotives with the Bombardier Coaches, and Locomotive.
Where my train goes it has 6 carriages
2019:me 4 coaches now ... Santa Clarita sadly
Nice vid coasterfan2105
Nice footage Mike.
Wow cool 1M views Yay
I love metrolink!?:)
10:31 and 12:43 Those cab cars are my absolute favorite. Metrolink 627 is the best out of every Gen 1 cab car.
Good Video Mike!
They still bombardier use cab cars? I thought all of them were retired
Some of them were converted into coaches and are still used. All the clips of them leading are pert of the "historical look back" in the video that runs roughly from 8:00 to 15:00
Some of the cars were donated to Caltrain in San francisco
I love brightline,metrolink and tri rail with Amtrak
Those old school p2 horns will be missed, compared to the dying goose horns on the new metrolink engines and cab cars, these p2s sound as good as an s3l when compared to the new metrolink horns.
SouthCalifas619 hey if you want the sound of the p2 horns, go to the Bay Area and listen to the ones on CalTrain! :)
@@SJSharkMaster Wait! What The Hell U Guys Talking About!😧😧😨😨🤯
Hey brah, watch this vid 100000000 times😂🎉❤
At 9:11 F59PHI #885 Is My Favorite Locomotive & Yet Nice P2🇯🇵
Great video LIve a year in LA. I should hive never left. Sitting here in dull cold Ontario Canada and asking myself why?
Cool video
Thanks!
So glad Metrolink was successful! Metrolink has awesome K5LA's and P2's. Good video Mike! Also, at 8:31, what was that train car?
Comet I. The Comet I was the first generation of the series of passenger cars known as the Comet series commonly used in New Jersey. This one was leased from a commuter railroad in and around Salt Lake City, Utah known as FrontRunner and is currently in use there. This one was originally built at some point between 1970 and 1973 for the New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT) for use on the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad's diesel commuter trains, was transferred to New Jersey Transit (NJ Transit, or simply NJT) in 1983 when all NJDOT commuter operations were transferred to NJ Transit as well, was retired by NJ Transit and sold to FrontRunner in 2005, was leased to Metrolink between 2008 and 2010 to substitute for the Rotem cars used today, and was returned to FrontRunner in 2010.
Nice Video Mike
i new there would be a metrolink vid!!! got a thumbs up from me!
Where is the BNSF engine on the rear i thought the rotems were not allowed to lead due to safety issues
slenderman7676 Rblx BNSF ran with Metrolink for amost 8 months. They have been gone for over a year now
slenderman7676 Rblx the problems were fixed
slenderman7676 Rblx They fixed them.
I thought the rotems were good and the bombardier cab car was safe
Lil Omelet68 What they were advertised to be, but the 2015 derailment proved it wrong.
Where is the union pacific locomotives and the F59PHI LOCOMOTIVE whith the K5LA horn
Metrolink should paint their old cars in new livery
I only watched this because it reminded me of CalTrain
16:27 Metrolink F59PHR Sounds like F59PHI
I subscribed and liked about this video
Those horns on the Metrolink engines have always sounded very odd. Do you know perhaps what type of horn Metrolink engines carry?
CentralOhioTrains Nathan P2
And as for the Rotems and F125’s, they use K2’s.
Thanks! What bells do the P2's consist of?
CentralOhioTrains P2’s are the horns. As for the bells, they either have a M-Bell or E-Bell. The newer locos have E-Bells.
Amtrak and AWVR Fan he ment the bells on the horn lol
you may be a coasterfan, but I'm a Metrolink fan, (see what i did there lol), i love the way they designed the cab cars, too bad i live in ohio
PK XD: I LOVE METROLINK!
FORTNITE: I LOVE METROLINK TOO!
RUclips: I LOVE METROLINK!
APP STORE: I LOVE METROLINK!
PLAY STORE: I LOVE METROLINK!
Ahhh back in the days metrolink fleet using ace and sounder with metrolink bombarded cars and with the fleet of f40phr for the standard f59ph/f59phi
0:37 my favorite
I want Mike Armstrong to make new video to record the Seattle soundtransit sounder trains
Denys Oliinyk he did lol
When are the MP-36's gonna get the new livery? I'm excited to see how they turn out!
New episode idea for train talk: EMD MP-36
Imagine if amtrak owned locomotives from amtrak (well they kinda do, only the F59PHI)
Um, the MP-36 is manufactured by MPI Xpress, not EMD.
He did it a few weeks ago now.
F40PH #800 was originally Amtrak 396. I have an N scale model of 396 made by KATO
keep on going trains
It's now their 30th anniversary
0:09
Thank you! Great channel! Has subscribed. Like#187
Why didn’t this get a heart
Metrolink should've gotten the electrification in Los Angeles area just like NorCal's Caltrain.
Wonder where that spot is at 6:22 ;)
I wonder where it is! :)
I like your videos can you make more, like if you want more
😮 cool
You only get that horn on Metrolink. 10:16 o dang f40-ph. 11:49 hold up 12:36 the tow truck is being towed?
7:22 , 15:37 & 17:41-17:53 Close enough for accurate carriage position
7:55 , 8:39 , 9:00-9:13 , 9:34 , 10:04-10:12 , 12:02-12:12 , 12:59 , 14:23 , Classic but Accurate
11:23 & 15:20 Accurate but not Close Enough for carriage position
12:22 Alright! Now that’s what I’m talking about (although the Rear Locomotive should be the same as the Front)
18:30 Now that’s what it should look like (removing the First Locomotive)
Hi Mike: Looks like you have a new YT Logo. Looks great for the new circle. Cool rail-fanning on the Metrolink line.
• Cheers from The Detroit & Mackinac Railway 🚂
Thank you, Gary. Yes, this will be a temporary fix, but it does work better than the other one.
Second comment! Amazing as always, Mike.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Nice Video. I subscribed to you.
Ethan the Railfanner Mike is such a good youtuber.
Some Metrolink commutes are an hour or more. There should be a snack car.
Hi! With which camera did you shoots?
All of the trains have the Hyundai Rotem Car, they must be good!
The_Incredible_ Gamer They are! they have extended noses to make it so when the train crashes, the energy of the crash isn’t put into the driver
meanwhile scax 645 that flipped over and metrolink sued hyundai rotem
I keep mistaking the f59phi for the mp36, why do they look almost the same?
1:59 Yikes…That Metrolink 865 has a broken horn.
Consuelo loves trains
Are they using the original trainsets?
oof now it’s 31 years old dude!
I went to San Bernardino I saw Santa Fe 3751 coneted and i saw going with each other
GO!!!
Some Metrolinks have the same locos that amtrak uses for pacific surfliner.
No, F59PHIs have been retired from Metrolink since April 2nd.
