UP 8388 EAP Unit leads a late Amtrak Sunset Limited

{4K}
Union Pacific Employee Assistance Program "EAP" sticker unit leads a 10 hour late Amtrak Sunset Limited #1 thru Temple City, CA. This train originally left New Orleans with the AMTK 54 leading and 5 trailing. There must have been some kind of issue with 54...looks like they flat switched it somewhere in Texas, along with adding this UP motor in El Paso.
Thanks to the Oso for "sniffing" this out! ;-)
I also tossed in a clip of the Z-LCLT Intermodal from Los Angeles to Lathrop, CA passing by Burbank downtown station on the heels of a Metrolink train.
Thanks for Watching!

Hehe, UP 8388 may still have the modern day UP colors, but since it received those stickers to be a special interest engine, I would definitely take it better than ordinary UP or ordinary BNSF as a rescue in the west! The K5LLA on 8388 sounds great as well. Great video, Chris.

Union Pacific, or BNSF to the rescue after an Amtrak Unit fails. Quite a common site among Amtrak trains....awesome catches.

Can't go wrong with a good narrow font K5LLA...

One of the two amtrak locomotives broke if a UP freight loco is on pull to a passegger train
