New Year's Day's rain has stopped and, passing through the city of Orange (not a stop on Amtrak, but a stop on Metrolink), is Amtrak train 580, heading from Los Angeles to San Diego. CDTX (Amtrak California) SC-44 "Charger" 2115 has six cars in tow.
In the distance is the old Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe passenger station, which is the Metrolink stop, although the building itself is now a restaurant, the "Streamliner Diner".
Stretching from San Luis Obispo to San Diego, the Surf Line has become Amtrak's second busiest route. See the Pacific Surfliner and San Diegan in action along with trains from predecessors Santa Fe and Southern Pacific.
