Westbound Amtrak Empire Builder + Borealis trainset in at Milwaukee Intermodal Station 5-19-24
We were advised by some young rail fans at another location that the locomotive and cars behind the Superliner cars were being moved to the Twin Cities to be used on inaugural Southbound run of the new Amtrak Borealis route. P42 #174 in Phase VII livery is the locomotive being moved. It was our lucky day, catching this unusual consist.

Great video !
That was a cool video!! At first it threw me for a loop. At opening I see the Amtrak Engines with Metrolink cars in the background which I thought you were in LA 🤣. And another rare coincidence, the engine number 7, aligns with the train number 7, The Empire Builder. With my 38 years at Amtrak, I only saw that 4 times.

Thanks! I’m not sure why the Metrolink cars are there. I didn’t think about the engine number matching the train number. Thanks for pointing that out. My son and I want to try to catch the Empire Builder in Milwaukee again this weekend. I will post a video if we do.

Maybe the Metrolink cars were sold or leased to some commuter agency. Looking forward to your next video!! Have a fun Memorial Day Weekend!! 👍🏼
