Amtrak Tr 22, the Texas Eagle, approaches its' station stop at Taylor TX. The Phase VII paint is so new there is hardly a ding on the freshly painted nose. And since cars are no longer left in San Antonio, the train is two cars longer than it was previously. After its' stop, the Eagle will turn north toward Ft Worth, Dallas and ending in Chicago IL.
