Growing up in So Cal Mom had a sister in Davis and she didn't 'drive the freeways' which meant lots of train trips!! I was there this past Aug last. Thanks!
I actually got lucky. This morning's train pulled in on Track 14. Usually we're on track 10 and I might have missed it. I also got luck time wise as the train pulled out as soon as I took the head-on photo. I think the engineer dimmed the lights for me to take the photo. In some ways, the new locomotive looks like an evolution of the F3 and F40PH. I wish I could have gotten more/better photos.
