I Think Caltrain shouldn't retire all f40phs but restore or retire some of them and keep the gallery cars and get a SC 44 like the one's the capitol corridor and surfliner or f125 plus the brookville bl36ph would be a good choice to pull the gallery cars because i have seen commuter service trains having SC 44 pulling old bombardier bi level coaches instead of retiring them for new coaches

I can still remember taking Caltrain to work from the Townsend Station to South San Francisco from 1990 to about 1994. I will always cherish those years when I lived my dream of seeing America by rail. I really miss the sounds of the train bells and horns.

A question, please - what do the small, two-digit numbers on the cab's engineer-side rear-view mirrors mean (time stamp 12: 51, 19: 47 etc)? I rode the line for years but never noticed those before.
Great video. Thank you for posting.

Good stuff, your videos are great at explaining the history. but I think the orginal 1980's gallery cars were built by Amerail (MK) right? Nippon shario built the order in the 2000's after Amerail /MK went bankrupt?

I grew up in The Bay Area and used to hang out at the Southern Pacific Roundhouse. I remember SP SDP45s, GP40-Ps and GP9s pulling the old Harrimans and Gallery coaches. Man, the area has changed!

You found some great vantage points, Mike. Congratulations!
It could use some audio limiting for the loud train horns.
Caltrain is special to me. I grew up near the California Avenue station.

18: 18 I never saw the -enter only- and -exit only- signs on Caltrain cars until this video. Was that some experimental policy amidst the pandemic?

When they retire the gallery cars i bet they end up in Chicago. For some reason Metra is the only damn railroad that wants to stick with a 1950's design!
