Amtrak 14.Blows Through Town, and VERY Thankfully, Passed a Failed Sabotage Attempt
Title:  Amtrak 14.Blows Through Town, and VERY Thankfully, Passed a Failed Sabotage Attempt
Description:  We chased 14 from Natron to the North end of Junction City at the grade at 661.3, after highballing out of Eugene. As soon as the crossing gates were lifted we heard the Amtrak engineer report over the scanner that they had just blown through a stack of tie plates that were stacked up on the west rail, thankfully only causing a severe "jolt" through thb train, as he reported around 661.8-9. Very happy nothing bad came out of this, but i hope very badly the sociopath who put them there is caught, however unlikely that is.

AMTK 505
Title:  AMTK 505
Description:  Due to trackwork on September 8th, 2012 (new switches being installed at CP Stadium in Anaheim), Amtrak's "Pacific Surfliners" detoured on the Olive Subdivision between Orange and Atwood (Placentia), at which point they reversed direction and headed to Fullerton. Not exactly rare mileage (thanks to Metrolink), catching "Surfliners" on these lines is somewhat rare. Train 566 is seen crossing the Santa Ana River on the Olive Sub (and also crossing from Anaheim to Orange) on its way to Oceanside, with Dash 8-32BWH 505 and F59PHI 450 powering the train. (There was also trackwork going on south of Oceanside, so these trains were only operating between L.A. and Oceanside, rather than going all the way to San Diego.)

AMTK 506
Title:  AMTK 506
Description:  Amtrak train #36, the eastbound "Desert Wind" (Los Angeles CA to Salt Lake City UT) passes through Lambert, a "station" in eastern Anaheim, California, on January 27th, 1993. Amtrak's colorful 500-class General Electric Dash 8-32BWH diesels were the normal power on trains #35 and #36 at this time, and one could easily handle this five-car consist. In Salt Lake City, the "Desert Wind" would connect with both trains #5 and #6 (the Chicago IL to Emeryville CA “San Francisco Zephyr,” later renamed “California Zephyr”) and trains #25 and #26 (the Portland OR to Salt Lake City “Pioneer”). These trains were in service from October 28, 1979 until May 10, 1997, at which point both the “Desert Wind” and the “Pioneer” were discontinued.
