San Diego County-s Coaster Commuter Train is in the process of overhauling its entire fleet. In 2020, North County Transit District, the owner of the railroad, received 5 brand new SC-44 Charger locomotives, built by Siemens Mobility, to replace the original fleet of 5 F40PHM-2C locomotives. That same year, NCTD began a project to refresh every passenger car owned by the railroad. The new Chargers and first four overhauled cars, resplendent in a brand new paint job, entered service on February 8th, 2021. Throughout the rest of 2021 and into 2022, NCTD continued refurbishment of the 28 car fleet. In October of 2021, North County Transit District began a new Coaster schedule featuring 15 weekday round trips and 10 each Saturday and Sunday, in an effort to provide more consistent Coaster service throughout the day. With the new schedule in place, the railroad must use a total of 5 train sets instead of the previous 4. As a result, all trains were shortened to 4 cars in length while several cars were out of service for their overhaul. NCTD also brought the two F59PHI locomotives back into service as spare power. Let-s travel to San Diego County in early 2022 to see Coaster trains as they operate during this major transitional period for the railroad

Nice video Mike! I have to say Coaster did a great job with what they also did with 2310 and 2309 as well. They should be refurbishing the other Cabcars (except 2306) in descending number order. Coaster is also planning on getting some more coaches along with some crash energy management cabs too, so if you plan to get Coaster sometime in the further future, be on the lookout soon.

I am an Amtrak railfaner and love your videos. I will go to oceanside on April 3 through 8th. Can we meet in DEL MAR for some train spotting? I will take Amtrak 777 from San Diego to Los Angeles on the 9th. We could also meet on the track my train comes on in los Angeles?

That sound like a train horn, which is added in by an amplified oscillator at certain train rail crossings, is truly weak. It reminds me of a morning rooster announcing another sunrise, but the rooster has a bad cold.

It's weird seeing a charger pulling bilevels. That said, would have been nice to catch the interior of coaster cars. See what they're like in all three levels in a system outside of GO.
Anyway, awesome vid.

When we first caught 3002 Colin was yelling -I have to tell Mike, I have to tell Mike! - This is my favorite video of yours so far. Thanks for posting!
