Spirit of Washington, Part Deux

Spirit of Washington Train

Spirit of Washington Train, Part Two
On June 8, 2007 I shot video of the Spirit of Washington, a dinner train, that runs from Renton to Woodinville, Washington. It uses rare F-unit locomotives. The track it runs on is due to be removed for a highway project and it only has about a month left to run. They ran two Spirit trains on June 8, including a lunch charter train for employees of T-mobile. The Quicktime movie above is the train after it left Renton. This video focuses on the train in Woodinville, Washington. This follows part one, previously released.

Spirit of Washington, Part One

Spirit of Washington

Chasing F's in Washington in 2007
Yesterday I shot the Spirit of Washington, a dinner train, that runs from Renton to Woodinville, Washington. It uses rare F-units for power. The track it runs on is due to be removed for a highway project and it only has about a month left to run. They ran two Spirit trains yesterday, including a lunch charter train for employees of T-mobile. The Quicktime movie above is the Spirit of Washington leaving Renton, followed by the BNSF's Maltby Turn.
