| A pair of Danish-built IC3 self-propelled train sets, on loan from Israel Railways, tested on various Amtrak routes in 1996. Amtrak 7003, operating as "San Diegan" #577 (San Diego to Los Angeles) is seen here passing one of the few remaining orange groves in the city of Orange, California, on July 27, 1996. (The orange grove has since fallen to progress when the Metrolink station, whose platforms are visible behind the train, expanded their parking lot.) |
