RE: Surfs Up !! ....... Surfliner Shots Anyone ??

Hi Tim & anyone on the Surfliner team,> I am commited to photo taking only...............no detailsthanks for doing your job, ye know? Another must-have (no surprise though). One of the few US routes I know from personal experience, having lived in SD for a couple of months back in 1994, and having taken the (old) surfliner with F40s and Amfleet coaches (?) from SD to LA for a couple of times. Just a minor concern/question: Is that spring time textures for the vegetation, or summer? 'cause the route looks a lot greener than I remember it (yellowish grass in '94s SoCal summer). But scenic as can be, judging from your screenshots!Lukas a.k.a Swissie

Hi Dan, thanks for clearing things up!> That's Kicking Horse Pass his shots are on, Lukas, not the Surfliner route. Aaaah, that explains a lot - such as the CP sitting there, and the very pine-like palmtrees... Well, there are some hills between Oceanside CA and the LA Basin, I must've associated the backdrop with them and made a short circuit Surfliner train = Surfliner Route. Still nice those shots.Lukas a.k.a Swissie

Funny.. we have Amtrak 450 and 463 up here right now we seem to kidnap the Amtrak West locomotives quite a bit, yet won't order anymore F59PHis for us. So when worst comes to worst.. we just use a Sounder F59 Add: Hmm, I wonder how the Talgo will look being pulled by an MP36

Just a little more let down each time nothing proceeds all the "another day or two" or "definitely by the end of next week" statements.
However, I still can't wait to take those F59PHI's for a spin on my soon-to-be-released Chicago Racetrack!

Dan,
I think its great you guys are holding it back a little longer in order to better your product, but it would also be kind of nice to have an approximate ETA (just for kicks) when the plans change. Here again its been three weeks since the last "bi-weekly" newsletter.
Come on just a hint, pretty please with sugar on top?!

Darn... Caffeine cursing thru my veins and probably going to have to call it a night. I even had my card out, ready to order! Oh well, by my "morning" (mid-afternoon to most people in the US) hopefully things will be going.
Come to think of it the wee hours of Sunday mornings are a popular time for websites to do maintenance. Amtrak's Reservations site is one that comes to mind immediately.How big of a download are we looking at Marc? I'm on cable but just wondering, general curiosity.

Just speaking for the trainset itself (I have no idea how large the documention included with the pre-release is) it is approximately around 35MB. Of course, that will probably not be the size of the pre-release you will download, but it gives you an idea of how large the trainset is in a compressed zip. Regards,

OK...I'm ready...My broadband is back...My credit card is warping from the heat of my hand...Not a by-your-leave or even a "OK, It's fixed..." My cable modem was sitting balefully winking at me. so I powered it down completely. When I plugged it back in, it 'hunted' for a while, as it's been doing all weekend, then suddenly locked up and I'm online. (NO, my computer in not playing tricks on me and sneaking me into the dialup, I have a dial tone on my speakerphone. 'Sides, it's loading waaaaay too fast for dialup)So I'm ready when Andrew and Marc are.

We're ready, and we have been for a while now. The credit card company is giving us fits, but once they have sorted out the problems we plan on getting the sale going as soon as possible. We're hoping it'll be by tonight at the latest, but you never know. Until the CC company gets their issues fixed we've got our hands tied behind our backs. We're sorry about the delay, just didn't forsee this happening.Regards,

Hey, Marc, how will you guys let us know when we can download the trains? Email? Posting on the forums to go check out email? Going personally door to door all over the country with a Surfliner CD?Either way, thank you all so much for what will truly be a Sunday to beat all other Sundays.-You can never have too much inner beauty. Or socks.

Hehe, yeah I sleep, just probably not when everyone else on this forum does. I don't think Andrew, Marc, or myself sleep what you would call normal hours. It's not uncommon for us to be on the phone with each other at 4 or 5 in the morning. Regards,
