One more thing i like to point out That crack on the lead unit is an erie premonition of whats gonna happen to it tomorrow.

Man. Im praying for the hospitalized Engineer. Its just kinda upsetting that the P40s are in their final years of service on amtrak. And then gets destroyed in a similar fashion to what happened in 1999.
