Truly great railroad photography, particularly the sound! Some of the best I’ve seen.

[@jwhitman2005]

Say, what’s with the Metrolink at the beginning? Did it break down or something?

Sweet collection of videos are you able to get video of the switching action in local freight yards. Sometimes you just cannot beat watching a train being built.

I hope that Amtrak pays BNSF railway for there service or them helping them out.

What happened to the Amtrak train that a BNSF GEVO had to be a part of the train

Wow look all those GEVOs! Burlington Northern & ....Santa Fe to the rescue. BNSF saves the day! Atchinson, Topeka, and Santa Fe pulls the Southwest Chief once again! Excellent catch!

I'm just curious as to how much more power the BSNF engine has vs. an Amtrak engine that it's presumable that one BNSF could pull 9 amtrak cars but it takes at least two Amtrak engines to pull the same amount of cars?

AMTK P42DC

Wow! That is something special!

[@manuels89]

Why the Southwest Chief is late and with a BNSF GEVO locomotive?

[@GK2o]

Just the one of the BNSF trained

[@maxiei]

Wow! Perfect shots with perfect sun!

[@Ferrocarril_Chicago]

Awesome catch!!!

[@awesomeamericantrainsandte1013]

Yeah, most of these trains including the Southwest Chief have a lot of engine problems, especially when climbing up mountains.

Amtrak 161? I have that model train HO scale and N scale

[@Philios2Glory1]

Sounds like the first Unit broke down. And had to find a replacement.
