Amtrak's Southwest Chief, La Plata, MO, 3/31/08
- 16 years ago
Train #3 (Westbound)
Units: P42s ??? & ???
Consist: Original 8 (Transition Sleeper, Two Sleepers, Diner, Lounge, Three Coaches)
Time: 8:19 pm (13 min late)
I'll let the video do most of the explaining, and I'll also let y'all enjoy the BNSF freight that came in at just the right time, too.
Edit: I meant to ask this when I first posted the video, but I guess now is as good a time as ever. Near the end of the freight, when I get the camera to focus on a set of trucks, I noticed a lot of sparks coming from that set. I'm not certain if it's evident with this video, but nevertheless what do those sparks mean and would it cause a safety hazard down the line?
