The Santa Ana Trainmaster
Title:  The Santa Ana Trainmaster
Description:  Train Master Bruce is an individual that can be found at the train station in Fullerton California on a weekly basis. He is well known by all the L.A. to San Diego Amtrak train crews and allegedly did a turn to Kingman and back on the Chief when he got stuck on the train by mistake - or not, depending on who you talk to. From what I have observed, Bruce rides back and forth between Fullerton and Los Angeles as his whim demands and he always travels business class because that is where the coffee and pastries are available. Some famous quotes attributable to Bruce and heard around Fullerton are: (1) "Izze at Basta yet?" (2) "He's at Highland now" or "Highland now!" (3) "Hey Dave, 18 and 24 tonight, ya?"

Train Master Bruce at Fullerton
Title:  Train Master Bruce at Fullerton
Description:  Under menacing skies on a cold December evening, Train Master Bruce converses with the engineer of a very late Amtrak Train Number 3, the Westbound Southwest Chief as it makes a station stop at Fullerton California, a mere forty five (45) before the Eastbound Southwest Chief, Amtrak Train Number 4 is scheduled to arrive from Los Angeles on the same track, but pointing in the opposite direction.
