Three-way at Seacliff
Author: walstib

Seacliff between Carpinteria and Ventura hosted a three-way today when a tardy Starlight met two pals under stormy skies next to the Pacific Ocean.

Pacific Surfliner 769 was waiting at the north end of Seacliff when southbound Surfliner 784 showed up and went into the siding.

The Starlight, which was about two hours late leaving LA, followed 769 up the coast and then 784 continued south.

Thanks for looking.

Pic #1: Probably the first time at that location two side by side were ever recorded or published here. Very trick!

Especially I like the sequential loco #s. What are the chances?

Thanks for posting! I'm thoroughly enjoying your coverage of the Central Coast. I think it's about time a daylight oil can shows up to reward you for all the efforts.

I came pretty close to that location with a two-fer back in 2005 (5th picture from the top). Just a few hundred feet east of that curve.
