Here's some video featuring the eastbound Amtrak California Zephyr departing Ottumwa, Iowa, about 30 minutes late on September 15th, 2010. Due to quite a bit of track work around Ottumwa at the time, the train came into the station "against the current" on track 1, which is somewhat unusual for eastbounds. Amtrak #66, lead unit on the train, is now painted in the Phase II heritage scheme from Amtrak's 40th Anniversary in 2011. It looks MUCH better now than it did in this video!
