3 Passenger Trains at Colfax [1991]
Author: gonx

Westbound Amtrak #5 meets Amtrak #6 on a snowy day on SP Donner Pass. The Colfax roadmaster is in a hurry to get his hyrail off before the parade of westbounds catches up. Eastbound Trancisco Tours shows up while #5 is making its stop.

Bad news was my video camera got water damage from an ealier downpour. So the tape became damaged.

I wanted a do-over but it never came about.

Colfax CA
March 1991

At least the video worked, nice job, sucked about no. 5 having an SP Unit leading, but 13 cars on both, back then Amtrak really was determined on improving their LD Trains, sad these days Gardner and Co. just think the future is just corridors!
