Amtrak Veterans Commemorative Unit NPCU 90208 Pacific Surfliner - CoasterFan2105

video description

Rating: 4.5; Vote: 2

To commemorate Veteran-s service in protecting the United States and to celebrate their hiring initiative to employ more vets, Amtrak painted non powered control unit number 90208 into a special paint scheme. (I will talk more about these unique cars that were converted from old locomotives in a special new video series coming out next year) This car usually runs on Pacific Surfliner trains in Southern California, but was recently overhauled at Amtrak-s Beech Grove Shops in Indiana. It now displays a special paint scheme, similar to the one that was already applied to engine 42. After a special dedication ceremony on November 10th at Amtrak-s 8th street yard in Los Angeles, number 90208 entered regular service on Veterans Day 2015 for the first time in its special Veteran-s Paint scheme. Here it is first running on train 566 to San Diego and then leading train 777 back north to Los Angeles

Happy Veterans Day! and also I FREAKING LOVE THIS ENGINE! It's got a sick paint scheme and a killer horn! Also, do you know if this engine/car might visit Northern California?

1: 56, what's the deal with someone in the cab car? Backup in case the cabbage fails?
Awesome shots Mike! May have to make an attempt at filming this engine sometime.

Just to nit pick there is no such thing as an engine on the railroad, it is a locomotive and 90208 is a Control Unit that's all. Thanks for the vid's.

90208 sadly got into a bad wreck when it slammed into a forklift stuck on the tracks in San Juan Capistrano back in August of 2019.

Great job Mike. I hope one day to meet this locomotive and all the Pacific Surfliner. Excellent explanation. I'm waiting more videos.
