Title:  CDTX 2123
Description:  Caltrans 2123 sits on track 9 at San Jose Diridon.

This is the case with 2123. When needed, the set of equipment will relocate to a track closer to the station, board passengers, and depart for Sacramento.

This scheme will replace the old paint worn by car 3207 and F40PH-3C 3104. 3207 is new to RRPA.
