Amtrak Sunset Limited #2 in Alpine, Texas with Great Horn

WATCH IN HD
Just after dark, I caught the Eastbound Amtrak Sunset Limited 2 arriving in Alpine, Texas. It was a bit delayed here but I'm just happy to have had any light! This was on 6-29-24 at 9:14 PM along the Union Pacific Sanderson Sub. The next night in Marathon, Texas on the 30th I caught a Westbound Union Pacific manifest, albeit a quiet zone. Finally on July 2nd, I caught the return trip of the Sunset Limited 1 heading back West to Los Angeles with the same power. Thanks for watching!
The engines were:
AMTK 199 GE P42DC
AMTK 135 GE P42DC

It's been awhile since I've seen an Amtrak for cross-country travel.

Not very fast, that's for sure!
