Drifting back
Title:  Drifting back
Description:  Amtraks station switcher, and ex Frisco GP 7, rolls back into the darkness of Union Station as the Cal Zephyr heads for everywhere west. One thing this Cal Zephyr has that the original did not is the Santa Fe hi level cars, seen here right below me. They were a real treat to ride in, and had some of the best leg room of any coach I've ever spent any time in.

AMTK 761
Title:  AMTK 761
Description:  Switching Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal on April 15th, 1982, is Amtrak GP7 761. The old GP is bringing in a cut of Amfleet cars for a "San Diegan." Amtrak 761 began life as Frisco GP7 621. It was later sold to Precision National Corporation (as their #621), who in turn sold it to Amtrak. Note the out-of-service tracks in the foreground, with the switch frog and points removed. Thirty years later, in 2012, things at LAUPT had gotten so busy that new trackage was installed!
