Super Chief trivia

Information provided with this Ebay slide says it is the Super Chief, April 1973, Pasadena, Ca.

I never knew Amtrak used the Super Chief name. It didn't last very long:

Wikipedia
The Super Chief name was retained after Amtrak took over passenger rail service in 1971. Then in March 1974, the Santa Fe forced Amtrak to drop the name because of a perceived decline in quality after the Amtrak takeover. The train was renamed the Southwest Limited.

But why is an Amtrak train being pulled by ATSF locomotives? Does anyone know?
