A morning at Buena Park and the Martina McBride Special Train 10/10/2011



by Chris Guenzler



On the way home last night aboard Metrolink 660 I saw the Martina McBride Special Train in the shed at 8th Street in Los Angeles. When I got home, I checked Trainorders.com and learned it would be leaving sometime after 6:00 AM. I set my alarm and got up early before driving down to the Santa Ana train station and buying a Metrolink Orange County Day Pass. I took Metrolink 601 to Buena Park where I detrained hoping to catch that special train there this morning.
