AMTK 90278
Title:  AMTK 90278
Description:  AMTK 90278 non-powered head end on southbound through Ridgefield with a wonderful example of, "And what exactly did you _expect_ to happen?" Yes, that mini-van saw the gates close before turning around on the DIRT road at grade crossing in Ridgefield, opening both side doors as this passenger consists hurtles toward the crossing. Interestingly enough, the folks closed the van doors... after the train passed at the 60 mph P speed limit for the area. Im presuming they didnt have enough debris inside the vehicle and wanted to remedy that deficit.

Title:  AMTK 90278 zipping into the station past BNSF 3156
Description:  AMTK 90278 zipping into the station past BNSF 3156 (and the photographer) idling on the bridge guard-duty spur (well, the photographer was idling on the station deck, but you get the idea) (Contrary to the wifes repeated attempts to correct that sentence, I did NOT intend to say I was addled on the station deck); the southbound passenger Cascades Sounder under crystal clear, but cold, skies at the Vancouver Station.
