Cell photo of Amtrak 519
Title:  Cell photo of Amtrak 519
Description:  Due to using a telephoto lens and having limited time to switch to another, I whipped my cell phone out for a picture of Phase IV 519, trailing on 365 this morning. It was a nice treat to be in a consist with this unit again, considering they were slaves to this train between 1999 and 2003.
