13:08 In my opinion, this is the clip from CoasterFan2105 that I will remember most of all. Always loved watching this channel since it was kind of what got me into trains!
Where did you hear that 507 has been sold? Unless you've heard that from an official source, I would take that with a grain of salt. Amtrak rebuilt the dash-8s a few years ago, so I doubt they'll be going anywhere for a while.
It's nice to see this train from the outside. I was riding in (as I recall) the 2nd Amfleet car back. Coincidentally, CoasterFan2105, this is the trip which first introduced me to Coaster and I took a great photo of their F40PH # 2105 at Carlsbad station.
CoasterFan2105 yeah... also can you railfan la puente C.A. Union Pacific goes by there on the Alhambra sub... I recommend going there around the night time and afternoon because a lot of GE locomotives come by... also the best railfanning spots would have to be Bixby drive, Stimson ave, and Fullerton road off of Valley Blvd oh yeah almost forgot the best time to railfan would be around night would be 12 am and 6 am because it gets very busy over there at night and for noon would be around 4-6 PM... but yeah tell me what you think.
Santa Fe 3751 is an interesting locomotive to me. If it existed anywhere else I really wouldn’t care for it but it was the large steam locomotive in my area and I have grown more fond of it because of that. It’s probably 3rd place on my list for the steam locomotive in restoration is due to return soon right behind 60007 Sir Nigel Gresley and 3801. I’ll definitely be seeing her when she’s back.
From what I’ve read 3751 is scheduled to return very shortly. I’ve been following the FRA 15-year rebuild on their Facebook and according to the group, the rebuild is almost done.
Hi Mike; Thank you for the great look back and the story that goes with it. Watching the railfans crowding the open vestibule windows and the baggage card doors reminds me of the early 1960's in Ontario when the Upper Canada Railway Society sponsored many steam excursions behind CNR's Northern class 4-8-4's locomotives. I spent many days in those baggage cars. They always had a number of large tables which were full of fans' reel to reel tape decks recording the history. It is sad that no organization stepped up to the plate with a commitment to preserve/restore such power when the certifications expired. Nice work ! And thank you for sharing.
CALIDOT Information: California Please note: Due to the current Pandemic, these cars are unlikely to enter service in mid-2020 The CALIDOT Fleet will be replacing the Comet Cars used on the San Joaquins along with 4 Nor-Cal trainsets. These sets will be sent to replace the Horizon set on the Surfliner. The other 3 will be broken up to replace the Superliners on the Surfliner.
Wow, with National Train Day coming up I'm getting antsy to do some travelling but who knows what is going to happen this year. This is starting to hurt the smaller railroads and groups.
Man, this has got to be one of your best videos ever! But then again I biased because 3751 is one of my favorite steam locomotives! I only hope to be able to chase her someday.
Great footage and video Mike! That weekend was sure a fun one and one of my first excursions behind mainline steam power. I too just recently re-shared some of those memories of the footage my family and I got of this excursion on my channel too. Thanks for re-sharing your footage to your viewers! Loved that K5L on 505 at 15:17 and K5LAs of the 460 & 461 F59s. -Jon
From before, when they would run this steam locomotive. They used to have real Santa Fe silver coaches behind it, and of course Santa Fe diesel locomotives as well to help. But nowadays I don't know if Amtrak owns the steam locomotive, but I would see some Amtrak locomotives and a mix-up of other coaches behind-the-scene locomotive. And that's not right. I hope to see you real silver Santa Fe coaches, and BNSF locomotives behind the steam locomotive if they ever use it again. Because I really want to see Santa Fe tradition for the steam locomotive itself, and to give some real nostalgia for the entire train itself. And to have BNSF locomotives behind the steam locomotive, I won't mind on that. I just want to see a real nostalgic tradition of the Santa Fe to be used for the steam locomotive itself, along with the help of two or three BNSF locomotives
The Santa Fe cars were only used for the 1992 employee appreciation trips I think. All the other trips have been a mix of privately owned and Amtrak cars.
This is one of my favorite locomotives of all time! You did a very good job with this video and I learned a lot! I hope to see her running some day in person
Oh my god this is memory lane for me. This was my first ever steam excursion, and a big one for me since I had been dreaming of going behind 3751 since I was a kid in the early 2000's. Great work on the documentary!
Thanks! And yes, 3751 should be back relatively soon. It's just that every 15 years, the Federal Railroad Administration requires all steam locomotives to have their boilers inspected to make sure they are up to code.
Awesome job Mike I absolutely love your videos there awsome keep up the awesome work and I noticed that the Coaster train meeting the special looks like your old Intro
13:08 now this, is a classic, and my child hood memory ty for being apart of my childhood your one of the reasons why i like trains today❤🎉🎉 hope u reach 1.5m subs hats off to you 🎩
Awesome video, I can't wait to see her return to service in soon when she passes the boiler inspection, hopefully Richard Anderson doesn't get in the way for ruining our railroads, everybody just hates him including me! One con I have to admit was 8:57 when you said quiet zone, it just makes me mad to see people not realise that more cars are getting hit every year thanks to them, and yet they claim quiet zones are there to help them feel relaxed and peaceful, but when the horn sounds off, it damages their ears supposedly causing noise pollution, I totally doubt that! I really hope they start removing quiet zones soon to teach those people a lesson about railroad safety, if they don't like the horn, either they get used to it or simply move to a different area, but asking for quiet zones, oh ho no, don't get me started with those!
Once 2926 is finished and operating excursions. Me and a. Group of volunteers are going to be restoring a 729 class locomotive from 1900, also belonging to the At&SF
1:28 once covid 19 is offically passed us 3751 will eventually be back same goes for sister 2926 in New Mexico and many other operating steam locomotives.
Gotta tell you coasterfan2105 but that was the first loco I saw on video and wat an awesome first! Can’t wait for her 100th birthday celebration! I might be there1
12:30 a perfect train shot in my opinion
THE most iconic shot of this entire channel with no doubt
13:08 Well this is more than familiar :0
That's a throwback for me

13:08 Early CoasterFan2105 subs know wassup
Yep. I’m one of them
It means it's just getting started
Yup it's the old intro. Watched Coasterfan2105 since 2014-2015.
New and old in harmony
*Did I Lie?*
Y’all know tf goin on
13:08 In my opinion, this is the clip from CoasterFan2105 that I will remember most of all. Always loved watching this channel since it was kind of what got me into trains!
I love the Santa Fe 4-8-4’s. I didn’t know that the people who own the locomotive currently only bought 3751 for a d o l l a r
Crazy right?
Yup! It was really just for the purpose of making it a legal transaction from the city to the historical society.
What!? It was just something for PUBLICITY?
2926: pathetic.
Union Pacific: They paid for it?
I think the 3751 has one of the best sounding whistles in the country
Agreed!
I even close my eyes
Agreed
yes, it is very iconic
12:59 WOOOOOOOAH! Awesome K5LA! Great meet, 3751! :)
I love that whistle, I even close my eyes
Nice! It hard to believe its been 10 years since 3751 made a Trip to San Diego.
Thanks, Alan! Hard to believe it's already been 10 years.
This will be remembered as one of the historic trips in her new career to operation.
13:08 That's the shot he used for his old intros!
Coooorect
It looks super cool.
New and old in harmony
*Did I Lie?*
Yessss!,
Hi harr
15:18 Music to my ears. Nathan K5Ls are pretty rare to hear these days.
Indeed they are!
@@CoasterFan2105hi I'm a fan of you
Oh, I love that 6 chime whistle. My favorite of all time.
The collaboration between AT&SF and Baldwin during the years of steam sure did produce some good looking locomotives.
11:15 Amtrak 577 & 774, perfect surfliner set. Not something you see nowadays. EDIT: So is 785
Unusual to see 5 cars on a Surfliner in 2010. Also #507 was sold last year.
Where did you hear that 507 has been sold? Unless you've heard that from an official source, I would take that with a grain of salt. Amtrak rebuilt the dash-8s a few years ago, so I doubt they'll be going anywhere for a while.
CHILDHOOD MEMORIES
This is definitely a locomotive that I appreciate like all steam locomotives due to the huge part they play in US History.
It's nice to see this train from the outside. I was riding in (as I recall) the 2nd Amfleet car back. Coincidentally, CoasterFan2105, this is the trip which first introduced me to Coaster and I took a great photo of their F40PH # 2105 at Carlsbad station.
13:08 If that were me filming that meet, I wouldn't have been able to contain my excitement! What a shot!
Oh Yeah! I almost forgot...
10 years ago on this day, the 3751 sure got a lot of attraction by many people and just seeing so many videos!
That was a great video. I love steam trains, they are so amazing to see and learn.
Thank you! Steam is awesome.
damn i miss the good ol days of los angeles railfanning... watching this is so nostalgic
Sometimes, it's nice to go back. Even if it's only for a few minutes.
CoasterFan2105 yeah... also can you railfan la puente C.A. Union Pacific goes by there on the Alhambra sub... I recommend going there around the night time and afternoon because a lot of GE locomotives come by... also the best railfanning spots would have to be Bixby drive, Stimson ave, and Fullerton road off of Valley Blvd oh yeah almost forgot the best time to railfan would be around night would be 12 am and 6 am because it gets very busy over there at night and for noon would be around 4-6 PM... but yeah tell me what you think.

The SEASIDE shot was EPIC! Thanks for sharing MIKE!! :D
Thanks, Gary! There are some great spots along the ocean in Socal!
Ya
Best Steam Locomotive Ever! :-D
Man, I can't believe 3751 is 93 years old. I thought it was built in the 1940s. Crazy to think it's close to 100 years old.
Thank you for the 3751 to San Diego video, Mike. I enjoyed it.
You're welcome! Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed it!

THE LEGENDARY JT!

Thanks man! 3751 sure is awesome. Can't wait to see it again sometime!
Santa Fe 3751 is an awesome locomotive. Hopefully it will do some more excursions in the future.
21:29 -- now that's a nice shot!
13:02 the origin of CoasterFan2105's intro
I’ve done the Amtrak trip before and I liked it and since I wear my railfan stuff I got to be in the cab engine ride with Timmy and I love it
Ya indeed I love the whistle soooo much

Best CZcams Video In The Universe
I remember seeing many videos of that May 1 2010 trip! My favorite was this one where the Locomotives ran over a guy's camera.
Wait, what????
@@pzavis25 did you not see "camera" it was a shot of the Locomotive from underneath.

This is Awesome
Looks very nice Mike
I’ve always wondered what happened to 3751. Now I know now. Thanks CF2105
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Oh my god this is memory lane for me. This was my first ever steam excursion, and a big one for me since I had been dreaming of going behind 3751 since I was a kid in the early 2000's. Great work on the documentary!
Thank you very much! It's sometimes really neat to go back through all the old video and put something like this together. Lots of good old memories.
Thanks for the awesome flashback Mike 5/1/2010 was the first time I ever saw 3751
Thanks, Cam! It was a fun couple of days for sure. I remember you guys got them pulling into Carlsbad Poinsettia! How time flies.
@@CoasterFan2105 is sure does
The Coaster Meets The 3751 Express! Just Love That Part!
by the way I love you videos I am such train fan and I bet you are to.
You should upload Santa Fe 2926 it is fully restored now
I plan on it!
Sooooooooooooo goooood I love it 🥰
I love Santa Fe Steam Locomotive so much and they built in 1927
3751 out of service for 15 years? I hope it comes back sooner. I like your older intro screen shot.
It's not gonna be out of service for 15 years. 15 year rebuild means an overhaul is required every 15 years.
Thanks! And yes, 3751 should be back relatively soon. It's just that every 15 years, the Federal Railroad Administration requires all steam locomotives to have their boilers inspected to make sure they are up to code.
@@CoasterFan2105 oh that makes sense. Because even though the 3751 is big, it’s not that huge to inspect.
Powerfull🚂
Amazing, $1 saved this piece of steam history! :)
Awesome job Mike I absolutely love your videos there awsome keep up the awesome work and I noticed that the Coaster train meeting the special looks like your old Intro
Thanks so much, Kenny! Yes, that was indeed the clip from the old intro!
@@CoasterFan2105 your welcome Mike Keep up the fantastic work
I was waiting to see the full video when 3751 Meets coaster train. Awesome! 3751 is a very cool locomotive! Santa fe 3751 pulls an amtrak train!
Masterful
Nice catch of a 1700 series baggage cars.
Thanks!

good one coasterfan2105 i like steam train man 3751 is best i wish i was there
My dumbass really thought that a giant train was coming from behind the building in the thumbnail

Dang didn’t realize it but this is an action packed video! ATSF 3751 along with a K5L and K5LA Hybrids!

12:41 A fan of coasterfan2105 who joined the channel in 2024: why is that scene so popular?
I, who have been a subscriber since 2014: THE NOSTALGIA
12:41 I watched that about a million times
13:07 I like the of Intro
This was a good video to watch! Great video, Mike! -Andrew Mangalindan
Thank you, Andrew!
I did heard that Santa Fe 2926 is soon going to be returning back to operating condition soon.
Nathan Corcoran - the pistons just went in a few weeks ago. She’s about ready to move under her own power.
Yep. They were supposed to do a few steam ups in March but Covid-19 had other plans.
Once 2926 is finished and operating excursions. Me and a. Group of volunteers are going to be restoring a 729 class locomotive from 1900, also belonging to the At&SF
Yeah. She is under steam. But still ready. And going to return to operation soon.
This is also my first of my favorite Santa Fe steam locomotives.
13:06 the intro of coasterfan!
1:28 once covid 19 is offically passed us 3751 will eventually be back same goes for sister 2926 in New Mexico and many other operating steam locomotives.
That'll be neat to see!
I was on this excursion, I will never forget it
Wait you were?
Love that whistle!
Someday I would like to see the BNSF Excursion train to be involved with the steam locomotive
Image what they could do
I actually caught a BNSF T4 GEVO with a trailing #173.
Nice shots at the old xings in Pico before the separation!
Thanks man! Hard to believe how much has changed in the last decade sometimes.
Love the video Mike
Thank you!
Very Well Done Mike!
Thanks so much!
NP
Be great if 3751 made another visit to san diego again in the future.
Nice catches with Santa Fe 3751. ~Andrea.
Thank you!
Classic
Tbh, the 3751's whistle reminds me of the sp 2472's in the 90's
Now that is a popular seen at 12:59
Happy May Day, Mr. Mike Armstrong! :-D
Thanks, Kev!
Happy Friday! :-D
13:07 We all came here for this.

Cool Picture Santa Fa Steam TRAIN 3751.
Thanks, Eddie!
Thanks for reshowing this.

Gotta tell you coasterfan2105 but that was the first loco I saw on video and wat an awesome first! Can’t wait for her 100th birthday celebration! I might be there1
Ckeck out Santa Fe locomotive 3751. She was made in the year 1927, and she's still a beauty.
It’s weird that the San Bernardino bought the locomotive for ONE DOLLAR
Awesome video!
13:07 the iconic clip that appeared in many CF2105 intros
I love the big Santa Fe Steam locomotives and my favorite ones are the 3751 Quince locomotives and the 2900 class locomotives
Man those times were good
Yes they were
You should film in Baldwin Park, where there is a crossing next to the original In N Out Burger!
I did for two of the San Bernardino trips!
CoasterFan2105 Did you get the train and the In N Out in the same video?
@@larailfan1714 No, that's hard to do unless you get a backlit shot or an afternoon shot of something heading into LA.
