railfunny's favorite NW Amtrak trains Some clips I recorded of my favorite Amtrak trains serving the NW USA. Trains include the Empire Builder, Cascades, and Coast Starlight. Those peeps on the platform in Tacoma are fellow students and employees from Green River Community College in Auburn, WA, taking a trip on the Cascades to Portland, OR. I bet you wish your school was cool enough to take trips on Amtrak! Tags: Amtrak California Cascades GRCC Montana Oregon passenger rail railfans railfunny railhaters Starlight trains Washington |

BNSF Stampede Pass Auburn, WA Grain Train A BNSF grain train passes through my back yard on April 21, 2007. Well, not really my back yard, but less than a mile away. The location is the Auburn, WA "M" Street crossing. The empty grain train is going from TEMCO/Cargill in Tacoma back to the midwest to refill. Empty grain trains comprise most of the traffic on the BNSF Stampede Pass line. Tags: Stampede Pass BNSF Auburn WA TEMCO Grain Train Runby Railfunny Railroad Crossing |

ORHF Puget Sound Steam Special May 19th 2007, SP 4449 UP 844 This steam double header with SP #4449 and UP #844 from Tacoma to Everett and back was my best steam excursion ever! I would like to thank the Barriger Library, Union Pacific Railroad, BNSF Railway, Friends of the 4449, Oregon Rail Heritage Foundation, the Washington State Historical Society, and Conductor Reed Jackson for making this trip possible. A coach seat was $299, and Dome $399. Double headed steam on a Class I mainline was truly priceless! Being that this was the same day as my 30th birthday made the trip even more memorable.

Jake's 6th Grade End of Year Band Concert - Part 2 Jake's getting pretty good at the trumpet, and had an excellent year end concert at Cascade Middle School in Auburn, WA. He has a new band teacher this year, and the difference is amazing. The 7th and 8th graders put on a good show too, and all three grades played selections from "High School Musical" at the end. Part 2 of 2, more jazz band, 8th graders "Military Escort", and a combined finale performance of "High School Musical".

Free Transit Day in the Bay Area 04/30/2007 Caltrain, BART + April 30th, 2007, was free transit day in the Bay Area of California due to the partial collapse of the San Francisco-Oakland highway. Many people took transit to work who wouldn't have otherwise. Meanwhile, tourists such as myself enjoyed free rides on BART, VTA light rail, Caltrain, and some almost free fun on the San Jose Beach Boardwalk Giant Coaster, and the Amtrak San Joaquins.

Izaak Walton Inn Train Adventure, Essex Montana, Glacier Last weekend I enjoyed a trip to the famous Izaak Walton Inn near Waterton Glacier Park, in Essex, Montana. The trip their aboard the Empire Builder was great, and the Inn was even better. There was Great Northern memorabilia everywhere, as well as fellow railfans. There were many great hiking trails as well, but the best part was the trains, lots of them. Essex is a helper station, with SD40-2 sets coupling up with freights for the steep climb up Marias Pass. If you like trains and/or the outdoors, you should really consider a trip to the Izaak Walton Inn.
