Chased and caught the Torch Train in Oakland's Jack London Square. Here are a couple of photos.

Crew change. The gentleman to the left is the Engineer.

The guy on the right is so excited, he is acutally floating in air.

Cauldron Car.

The train was long enough to block the crossing. Quite a backup after nearly 15 minutes. Several motorists were out of their vehicles looking at the train, and didn't seem to mind much.

Great Shots!

I would have loved to film that train myself. Anyone know if it will be in Oakland for a bit and if so, how long and when is it scheduled out and in what direction?

Thanks

WOW! I can't believe the cauldron car sat there for 15 minutes unattended and didn't get grafittied! Glad to see that.

The train was in Oakland for 15 minutes, made a quick stop in Emeryville for supplies and was headed to Sparks. UP Trace shows it arriving in Sparks today about 1:30.
