AMTK 503 |
| Description: |
Amtrak "Pacific Surfliner" #785 (San Diego to Goleta, CA) passes through the lagoons at the northern end of San Diego as it approaches the Pacific Ocean and its next stop at Solana Beach. This train often features older Amfleet and Horizon Fleet cars, and that necessitates the use of a Non Powered Cab Unit (also commonly called a "Cabbage" due the fact that they have a cab and a baggage compartment), in this car Amtrak 90230, which was rebuilt from Amtrak F40PH 230 and is painted for "Cascades" service in the Pacific Northwest. Oddly, even though there is an F59PHI shoving on the rear, todays train also has a GE Dash 8-32BWH on the point: Amtrak 503. |

BNSF 7727 |
| Description: |
Most of the trains operated by BNSF Railway between Los Angeles and Barstow are intermodal trains. Relief from these is provided by a few trains headed into and out of Watson, California, that feature "real" freight cars. Crossing the Mojave Rivers through-truss bridges is train M-BARWAT1-11A (merchandise, Barstow to Watson), with a mix of covered hoppers, tank cars and box cars. |

WAMX 3510 |
| Description: |
One of the plant switchers at the Riverside Cement plant in Oro Grande, California, is Webb Asset Management (WAMX) GP35 3510. Built by EMD in April 1965 as Western Pacific 3014, it was later part of Union Pacifics roster (as their 793). UP sold it to Eastern Idaho Railroad, where it retained the UP number (793). EIRR sold it to WAMX, and it eventually found its way to the desert of southern California, as seen here. |
