What a day. 20+ Trains at Los Angeles Union Station featuring Santa Fe #3751, Amtrak #203, and ATSF #5704. It was great to finally see a Dash 8 in action and pulling a nearly 100-year-old steam engine. I decided to make the video, mostly the railfanning from that day since it was hard to take pictures with hundreds of people checking out the displays. I returned after the #3751 departure to take photos of the displays. The X Games car #6306 was a nice touch, too.
