Passenger Trains > Yesterdays #4 through La Plata, MO with 184.

Finally was able to catch 184 leading the Southwest Chief as usually its always second unit out.It was running late coming in to La Plata, and added another 11 minutes on before it departed. Train was mostly Superliner Is, looked kinda cool almost being uniform.

Consist:
AMTK 184 P42 "Phase IV" Heritage Unit
AMTK 206 P42
AMTK 510 B32-8WH (DIC and exhaust stack was capped)
AMTK 1245 Baggage Car
AMTK 39024 Superliner II Transitional Sleeper
AMTK 32106 Superliner II Sleeper
AMTK 32007 Superliner I Sleeper
AMTK 38000 Superliner I Diner
AMTK 33021 Superliner I Sightseer Lounge
AMTK 34049 Superliner I Coach

AMTK 31019 Superliner I Baggage-Coach

This would be the second time I’ve caught 510 eastbound on the Chief, previously on June 28th, 2012 with very late running #4 (4 hours and 10 minutes late), it was actually in use that time. Must have blew up as it had just been on the southbound Coast Starlight just a day before it departed Los Angeles.

Is 510 going for rebuild or what?
