Amtrak CDTX 6907 Pacific Surfliner

After NCTD 587 passed and I missed the southbound freight, I moved here to West Cedar Street for my first Amtrak catch of the day, train #795 as it pulls slowly into Santa Fe Depot Union Station. This day was pretty good with 6 NCTD catches and 3 Amtrak catches one featuring a private car.
Amtrak California Pacific Surfliner Passenger Train passes through the West Cedar Street Railroad Crossing Southbound on the BNSF San Diego Subdivision main line in San Diego, California. This crossing is an ATSF late 1970s install with changes to its bells, lights, brackets, gates, and bases not being original to the install. BNSF switched the gates from the laft gateless signal to the median signal and added the exit signal while replacing the original ATSF signals and are BNSF mid 2000s signals. The signals that used to be on the right side were replaced by the MTS signals which are MTS early 2000s signals with light and gate changes.
