Truckee to Colfax over Donner Pass on AMTRAK Train #5
In approximate sequence, this leg covers Truckee, Stanford Flats, Donner Lake, Norden, Soda Springs, Emigrant Gap, Gold Run, and the entrance to Colfax are covered. Sorry to say that the many tunnels were not covered, as the ones that we did catch were blurry, and you can't get a straight on shot from the observation car. More from Colfax and the segment returning to Truckee in the next video.

The Wolfram Rd. crossing is located west of Portage, near the east end of Lewiston Siding. First, Amtrak #8 blazes by. Then, an eastbound loaded coal or coke train powered by ES44AC CP 8855 and AC4400CW CP 8654 comes through, after leaving the siding where it was overtaken by #8. Video by my dad.
