Grand Lux on Tacoma Rail

I saw the article in the Tacoma paper after I got back from vacation. The pic looked like the train was heading toward the TR junction with BNSF.

What was the route of this train to get onto Tacoma Rail trackage? Anyone know?

Did they come from the south (Chehalis) area and then go towards Eatonville? Did they "Y" the train at Fredrickson and then after arriving in Tacoma at Freighthouse Square go to Seattle?

Never saw anything about this and was curious. I cant believe the Tacoma Rail tracks are in very good shape for an Amtrak locomotive and Grande Lux Cars... if I'm wrong, let me know.

Just wish Tacoma Rail would get the bridge replaced, they are sure taking their time doing anything about it.
