Here's why #CalTrain was messed up this morning. (You can see a bit of work on the overhead starting about 3:10).

I've figured ever since electrification that something like this was going to happen eventually (I was more expecting a fallen tree) and then we'd find out how on the ball they are about getting things fixed. Getting overhead fixed in a couple of hours is not bad, really.

I've made a few attempts to get the new #CaltrainEMU's with my #Kodakbrownie and something always goes wrong.
I think I'm supposed to be documenting #CalTrain's old trains first.
The gallery cars are klunky old POS's but they've earned some respect.

Testing out the on-train Wifi by watching some videos. Seems to hold up. #Caltrain #CaltrainEMU #CaltrainElectrification

there's something fitting about going to the #CaltrainEMU public tour to see the new shiny Stadler trains and then trying to take one of the old #Caltrain Nippon Sharyo sets home, only to have the poor old locomotive break down one station after departure

@dannyman I suggest all of us fans use a hashtag like #CaltrainEMU any time a test run is sighted!
