159 Leads OLS 203 Into San Jose
Title:  159 Leads OLS 203 Into San Jose
Description:  Amtrak 159 leads the southbound Coast Starlight into the station at San Jose. The train is running three minutes late today, an impressive feat for the "Starlate," which can be upwards of an hour late on many occassions. The P42DC was built in 2001 by General Electric, and is one of over 200 such units owned by Amtrak. They are the backbone of Amtraks long distance fleet, but are being phased out of service by new Siemens ALC-42 locomotives.

Operation Lifesaver Unit 203
Title:  Operation Lifesaver Unit 203
Description:  Amtrak 203 idles at San Jose with the southbound Coast Starlight. The P42DC is painted in a unique commemorative scheme honoring the 50th anniversary of Operation Lifesaver. For a period spanning most of July 2022, the engine was assigned to the Coast Starlight service between Los Angeles and Seattle. Despite being the trailing unit for the entirety of its west coast jaunt, it was still an interesting catch for area railfans.

Caltrain 926
Title:  Caltrain 926
Description:  MP36 926 shoves a northbound 500 train out of Diridon. The exhaust of the 16 cylinder EMD 645 engine distorts the view of the overhead catenary converging at the throat tracks. At the north end of the station, Southern Pacific-style "tri-lights" guard the control point. The tri-lights would be gone just weeks later, part of Caltrains modernization plan. This plan will also see the MP36s bumped from mainline service, relegated to services to and from Gilroy.

Charger 2104 Northbound
Title:  Charger 2104 Northbound
Description:  Capitol Corridor 2104 shoves out of San Jose Diridon in late July. The SC-44 Charger was built in the mid 2010s as part of an order by several state departments of transport for state-operated Amtrak services.
