Rare sight

            Running well behind schedule, the northbound Coast Starlight nears Black Butte, California in summer 1994. Lead unit AMTK 501 is noteworthy - owned by the State of California, it was ostensibly restricted to use only on trains operating within the state. When the sun set on this day, it was running several hundred miles north of the Golden State.
