For my last Minecraft build of 2025, I figured that it's about time I build an EMD F40PH in Amtrak's Phase III scheme. If anyone's wondering how I did the phase III scheme, check out this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsMzanSLsSc

While pulling the Eastbound California Zephyr through Donner Pass, Amtrak F40PHs 249, 305, and 243, assisted by Southern Pacific SD40T-2 8314, urge onwards as they confront the storm. The harsh winter weather serves as a reminder of when the snowbound City of San Francisco train got stuck for several days during one of the worst blizzards of the 20th century.
