Tri-Rail Northbound Train, Cab Car Number 820 (2 of 6)

On Tuesday September 26, 2017, after the Florida East Coast Railway Society Convention was over and after I spent Monday taking Photographs in Miami Beach, I took a Tri-Rail Train from Miami International Airport to the Tri-Rail Station in Hollywood, Florida to catch an AMTRAK Train Home to Pinellas County, Florida. This was more convenient than taking a cab from the Hotel to the AMTRAK Station in Miami. Since I had to return my Rental Car at the Airport, it was easier to take a Tri-Rail Train from the Airport and make a connection with the AMTRAK Train at the Hollywood Tri-Rail Station.

 

While I was waiting for my connection with AMTRAK, this Northbound Tri-Rail Train stopped on Track #2 at the Hollywood, FL. Station. The train is controlled by Cab-Car Number 520 (on the North end of the train) during Push Pull operation, because the Locomotive is on the rear, pushing the train. This Passenger car, which was built by Hyundai-Rotem, is a multi-level Cab Car with Reporting Marks TRCX 520.

 

Notice the Palm Tree and the Tri-Rail Logo on the side of this Railcar. The Black Fence prevents people from crossing the station tracks; they must climb up the stairs or take the elevator and cross the bridge over the tracks to get to the other platform. Also notice the Blue, Green & Orange intertwined Arrow Logo between TRI & Rail on the side of the Railcar. Tri-Rail is part of the South Florida Regional Transportation Authority (aka: RTA).
