another surfliner painted F-40
Author: tmc1

I was playing around the redondo amtrak building (whatever they call it)and noticed another repainted F-40 in surfliner paint, it was the 381. This makes the averages better I can see one on the point (YA RIGHT).

And soon another will return from down yonder. The 381 hasn't left Redondo in over a week(or is it two weeks now?)still sitting outside the rectangle house like the last three days.
Other F-40s sitting on the far whisker tracks close to the future invisible Redondo tower 297, 353 and one other.

Have they done anything with 353 since its nasty encounter with
the house up in Washington?

Doesn't look any different than the others, the house incident was so long ago that any damage has been repaired and is un-notable unless you look it over with a fine-toothed comb....
Needs paint, Smurfliner or Shamu will do.

That's mainly what I was wondering. I never got a good idea
of how much damage the unit received, and wasn't sure whether
they were planning to repair it or shove it off into the weeds
to rust in pieces.

Mostly just broken windows and some scratched paint from the house.
