On June 22nd, 2019, I was with Socaltrainfan, San Clemente Railfan Productions, BNSFGUY7777 and Greensday592. Warning! there is a close shot of an unexpected northbound amtrak train approaching from the south which looks a little close to the tracks, viewer discretion is advised!.
This is one of the very first videos I have ever uploaded to my YouTube channel. My channel at the time, use to be called AmtrakTrainFan when this video was uploaded which I had made various name changes from AmtrakTrainFan to Amtrak464 Productions to Amtrak 2121 Productions and back to AmtrakTrainFan. I finally have realized that Amtrak being in my YouTube channel name was very overused in the Railfan community so I decided to come up with a unique name instead and called it “The Shinkansen Fan”.
Why is my channel called “The Shinkansen Fan” you might ask? That answer dates back to a time around 2004, when I was only a toddler when my parents took me on a trip to Japan as the only child to see relatives where I started to develop very young interests with trains and transportation as a whole when I got to ride with my parents on the Shinkansen bullet train that was so fast that it made me a fan of riding it which is why the channel is called “The Shinkansen Fan”.
