Remarks: How to end a day of railfanning - the moon was on the rise at 6:14 PM as Amtrak's northbound Palmetto streaked through the Route 606 crossing in Guinea, VA with Phase II Heritage P42 66 on the point and dome-observation 'Sierra Hotel' on the marker. A couple of riders enjoyed the view from the Sierra Hotel's rear platform as the train rushed on towards Fredericksburg.
Interesting note on this car about it's name i heard at an AAPRCO convention,apparently the owner at the time was a fighter pilot in Veitnam, flying F-4's and that was his call sign "Sierra Hotel".
