Filmed 04/10/14 How often do we get to see something other than a P40/42 leading an Amtrak train? Not very often. However, this time an old F40PH gets the honor. Usually it's the #42 that is leading, so I can count myself lucky for getting to see this happen. Normally, the 311 River Runner is only 3 or 4 cars long with a single P42, but this time things were a bit different. As it stands now, there is only one special Amtrak unit I still need to film, the #145. Hopefully I'll have that one soon, but it seems the last one is always the hardest to get. So we'll see how it goes. Up next, an AWESOME KCS train through my home town of Blue Springs, followed by another Heritage video from the Norfolk Southern, then it will either be a club vid or something special from the UP. But I still have a lot of regular stuff from the UP, BNSF, and KCS too, then whatever I end up filming this coming weekend at our train club's open house/train show. Here is Amtrak's description of the Exhibit Train: To commemorate Amtrak's 40th anniversary, we put together a special Exhibit Train with displays of photos, uniforms, fine china, and memorabilia from America's Railroad℠ while also offering a glimpse into the future. ---------------------------- Chris' account: http://www.youtube.com/user/844Train deviantART page: http://up9229.deviantart.com/ Train club account: http://www.youtube.com/user/EJCMRailroadClub/featured EJCM website: http://easternjacksoncountymainliners.com/ Yahoo group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Freelanced_Model_Railroads/
