Still recall parking in the lot, using the station restroom, noticing the old pay telephone booth and mailbox in the station- from 1999. This train-station holds as much charm as Amtrak. Fine video.
hmmm, BNSF leading a coast starlight is sort of odd. Thinking it was being delivered to LA BNSF tracks from Sacramento or Point Richmond? Routing on UP coastal was convenient to help out over the Cuesta grade, maybe borrowed power due to one of the SLO helpers being down? was there ever any reason given by anyone as to this foreign power situation? Helps my situation, I have an N scale layout of the Cuesta grade in the works, also some UP and BNSF sections planned as I am doing SD to SLO then maybe on to SF in T Trak double and triple module scenes. I have UP and BNSF GE locos so yay now I can hook up my superliners to the BNSF and not feel embarrassed by it!
I live in SLO, and I've taken this train to Seattle and back 5 times, and taken numerous other trips on Amtrak! The train is something special if you're not in a rush.
Scary. No but I do have a problem with kids who think they are a heck of a lot tougher and smarter just because they aren't face to face with the person.
Unitedforever Klamath Falls is still on UP territory. BNSF is between Portland and Seattle. There might be BNSF track near Klamath Falls though, so I don't know about that.

Love how the southbound does his horn. It's almost musical with the bell. I miss seeing the trains in SLO. I no longer live there.
I miss living there to man
Great video. Thanks.

I love the conductor's response!
@John Haynes At 2:56 when the person crosses the track. Conductor throws his arm up and then scolds the guy after.
They need to put crossing signals in the middle platform.
when they still had cafe cars.
Vintage Railroad you mean the Pacific Parlour Cars. Those have been retired in 2018. The cafe cars are the lounge cars.
AWESOME
I think the guy who crossed the tracks missed his train
What did the Conductor Say? He looked Pissed Off.
Are you f&*$ing nuts!
