|
| (57K) Train #779 arriving from Los Angeles with the new Surfliner cab car. Notice the horns below the front door! Must be loud inside the cab.
|
| (47K) A closer view of the cab car. The one thing I don't like about the new Santa Barbara platform are all the light poles which ruin train photography!
|
| (37K) Attractive new paint scheme on these cars with the train's new name displayed on every car.
|
| (36K) There were many passengers getting on and off at Santa Barbara so I had the time to QUICKLY jump on board the train and run upstairs and view the seating. I didn't dare sit down for I feared the doors would close and trap me onboard until the next stop at Goleta!
|
| (38K) A wider angle shot of me in the doorway. I jumped off just seconds before they closed the doors!
|
| (42K) My wife Lana even had time to jump aboard.
|
| (50K) Train #779 "pushing" out of Santa Barbara.
