Remarks: NCDOT added an assist in the form of "The City Of Raleigh", most likely in Raleigh, to Amtrak's "Silver Star" for the trip to Miami. Not only is the "star" on the nose noteworthy, the vantage point from which the first clip is taken is US 17-92, in Lake Monroe, followed by the train along US 17-92 in Maitland. Last time this happened was exactly 10 years ago in April 1998. Nice anniversary present! Two years later from this, 1792 was part of a major derailment.

Awesome catch, sounds like the hogger was enjoying the horn on this unit. Sadly, the 1792 will be scrapped as she suffered major fire and frame damage last month.
