One Colorful Train!
Title:  One Colorful Train!
Description:  A former GO Transit F59PH leased by Metrolink pushes train 321 to Los Angeles. Metrolink has leased three former GO locomotives while they install PTC on their own fleet. A colorful wrap advertising Metrolink's Weekend Day Pass along with three different paint schemes makes this (short) train quite colorful.

RIP
Title:  RIP
Description:  A Los Angeles-bound Metrolink train passes by a memorial set up in honor of 60-year-old Michael Rodriguez, who was struck by a Metrolink train at this crossing on June 4. According to news reports, Mr. Rodriguez's death was ruled accidental and there were ear buds found at the scene (although it is unknown if he was using them at the time he was killed). In a small town like Claremont that has not had a pedestrian struck by a train in many years, this is quite a shock. RIP Mr. Rodriguez.

SCAX 637
Title:  SCAX 637
Description:  One from the archives. Back in the days when there were no Rotem cars (which were not to be delivered for another year at the time this photo was taken), Bombardier cab car #637, the last of its fleet, leads an evening Metrolink train to Los Angeles. Currently, all Metrolink Bombardier cab cars have been replaced by the new Rotems, and most sit in sidings in Los Angeles, and other points around the system. Several are still roaming around in regular service, albeit as coaches, not cab cars.

SCAX 856
Title:  SCAX 856
Description:  The 15th annual Metrolink Holiday Toy Express has just arrived in Claremont. Every year (with the exception of last), the train, decorated with over 50,000 lights, travels to almost every Metrolink station between mid-November and Christmas and delivers a half hour show for all those who come. Those who come to see the show are encouraged to bring a toy that will be delivered to a needy child. Last year, due to budget cuts, the train only visited a limited number of stations and did not include a performance. It is good to see it back this year!

SCAX 681
Title:  SCAX 681
Description:  A fairly recent addition to the Metrolink fleet, Hyundai Rotem cab car #681 leads a midday train to Los Angeles. Not that long ago, towards the beginning of the year, seeing a Rotem leading a train would have been considered a rarity. Today, almost a year after the Rotems were put in service (12/10/10), there are less than a handful of Bombardier cab cars still at the point of Metrolink trains.
