Sunrail Simulated Service & Amtrak Railfanning at Deland Station FT: Horn Action & More! (7/22/24)

Hey Everyone! On Monday, July 22nd, I headed to the Deland Sunrail & Amtrak Station to film some Sunrail trains there prior to the official start of Sunrail service at the station on August 12th. I also went there to catch the Auto Train as I wanted to make sure to film it while on vacation as I was unsure if I would get the chance to film a P40DC double header leading the Auto Train again in Florida before P42DC or ALC-42 take over service completely from the P40DC on the Auto Train. Notably, I got to see Sunrail MP32PH-Q #100, which has one of the better sounding horns along with #109 compared to the rest of the Sunrail MP32PH-Q fleet. I also got to see 2002 again, which also has a nice horn for Sunrail standards. It sounds similar to 2005 & 2006. I also got to see some of the Sunrail rolling stock that has the interesting but bad sounding elephant horns. There is plenty of horn action in this video for the crossing at Deland station.

Note: The Sunrail trains in this video were running on the new schedule that went effective on August 12th. However, when this video was filmed, the schedule was not yet publicly available, and the trains were running between DeBary & Deland without passengers.
