Remarks & Notes

The first afternoon train arrives in Tacoma, using the recently completed Main 1 track. Where once stood the rickety, yet historic, Milwaukee Road S-Curve trestle, is a sturdy double track bridge, complete with a new pair of crossover's and signals everywhere! Only a few weeks away from seeing Cascade trains and the Starlight rolling through this scene.

Some of the best passenger locomotives that EMD ever made (aside from the F40PH). With all Amtrak F59s gone from the Surfline, the only place that they can be seen is with Caltrans (Amtrak California).
