Pacific Surfliner train 774 arrived at San Diego nearly three hours late on Sunday with F59PHI 455 and 464 on the front and 457 on the rear and Great Dome 10031 in the consist.







Nineteen minutes later the trainset departed in the opposite direction (hence the locomotives on both ends of the train) as Pacific Surfliner train 591.

Nearly 3 hours extra to enjoy the dome car!

I don't know why the dome was there; it was on Surfliner trains since Friday, and Labor Day is its last day (as reported on Trainorders dot com). Then it will come East and run on the Adirondak from Oct 1 into early November.

Excellent.

I'm eagerly anticipating leaf season and our own dome treatment on this coast!

They run a train of Amfleet cars from LA to Santa Barbara all the time. I've never seen them go from LA to San Diego though. If they do it would be for holiday periods when crowds are larger.
