Double headed CalTrain F40's on 1991's Garlic Train

Passing thru the cut behind Oak Hill in San Jose at MP50.7, F40's 918 and 906 are on the way to Gilroy with passengers for the Gilroy Garlic Festival.

Will there ever be another Garlic Train? Supposedly it was going to be reinstated once Caltrain restarted weekend service after the "Baby Bullet" CTX capital project was wrapped up. That project was complete in June of 2004.

Also, wasn't the Garlic Train sponsored by the now defunct Golden Gate Railroad Museum?

Yup and yup. Perhaps the elimination of one Gilroy train had something to do with it?
