Storm clouds roll in off the Pacific Ocean on a early January morning. The first southbound Amtrak Pacific Surfliner No. 768, departs Santa Barbara bound for Los Angeles on Main 1, as the northbound No 759 arrives from Los Angeles. No. 759 was one of the trains discontinued for a lack of riders in 2020.
Stretching from San Luis Obispo to San Diego, the Surf Line has become Amtrak's second busiest route. See the Pacific Surfliner and San Diegan in action along with trains from predecessors Santa Fe and Southern Pacific.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
