Mt. Baker International
Amtrak's new Mt. Baker International is seen northbound through Brownsville, BC. This is the immediate predecessor to today's Cascades service. This also is one of the original Talgo sets being used while the current sets were under construction in Washington State.
Note the dust being kicked up - The trains really bOuNcEd through here - this is before many track improvements were made to help improve travel times between Vancouver, BC and Portland Oregon.
Alex Fraser Bridge in the distance.
