They got FIVE (5) coaches in that Southwest Chief consist. Maybe one (1) coach is deadheading? I think they are just operating a fourth coach for the summer? Needed for the Boy Scouts - IF Amtrak wants the traffic!

I think a couple of the cars could be heading to BG for work?

What work, probably going there and rot away like the other equipment which Amtrak seems to not care for, still sad he doesn't have a dorm car!

Thanks for a great video.

Is it the camera angle or is the train literally running up grade?

thanks for the comments gents.

as far as the location goes, #4 is just starting up a grade out of a valley that levels out at just before "antares curve" approx. 2 miles e/of this location..........

This train was late due to no fault of Amtrak's. It was delayed East of Riverside after a fatal trespasser strike.
