Swedish high-speed rail visited Oakland, California as part of a national tour in the summer of 1993. I saw the Swedish X2000 train at the 16th Street Amtrak station and then at Jack London Square. The train was pulled by two Amtrak F40PH locomotives and was accompanied by an Amtrak baggage car and sleeper (Pacific Patrol). The tilting mechanism was demonstrated at Jack London Square. I enjoyed walking through the train and seeing the European details.

There's also an unusual sighting of a Caltrain F40PH-2, number 918, pulling the San Joaquin!
