Wow! Talk about a sighting........after 5 months of being away from Eugene Oregon and train sightings....I am back and checked out the Coast Starlight tonight bound for LAX. I am happy to report that all is well there, the engines and the Columbia Parlor Car are looking a little more raggedy than usual. They get old just like us, maybe older! After all this time it is the same Engineer that has been on the trip for months, usual small talk and the train takes off. I spot something bring up the rear, it is the Bella Vista Private Car. An old observation car with a platform reworked with executive trappings. The shining car was stately and handsome! Some lucky passengers whoever they are.

Here is the sight for the owners. Take a walk into fantasy land for your next vacation on the rails! This was a rare treat on the Coast Starlight!
