Mar 27, 2026 8:41am
Was able to make it to the train here at Mather for last week and of course the day I don't start west of Mather, it's the day they have something to bring to Pacific Supply therefore, the only footage of pre-switching car consist is the approach view I did in this video of the train coming across Routier and arriving near the Mather Field/Mills Station. I filmed the switching move from angles of the intersection view side with this move. The last light rail train was late which slightly messed up me setting back up for the freights pass at the starting angle for the next video. The Flyer had both power of the train swapped out with 1522 & 1466.
Union Pacific Railroad Florin Flyer Local freight train east on the UP Placerville Branch stops to work the UP Mather Spur to Pacific Supply passing through the Mather Field Road railroad crossing and some Sacramento Regional Transit light rail trains on the SACRT Gold Line in Rancho Cordova, California.
