Ah, back when Metro North was interesting! That's fantastic to see you have video of the FL9-AC's. They were a rare breed.

If I had to guess, I'd say that the last 3 clips were taken in 1995 or later.

Could be. My tape labeling wasn't always what it could be!

dkat1043 - I don't know who you are, but THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!!!!!!

You're welcome. I've been shooting train videos around the country in my spare time for about 20 years, and have been digitizing them for the past year or so. Been thinking about putting together a DVD. My ex-girlfriend's parents had a condo overlooking Scarborough station, so I used to spend a lot of time there shooting the traffic. Dan

very cool! if you find time to digitize any more of the stuff from this area I'd love to see it!

[sportsmovieman]

Yeah, but on the account for the locomotives, they are still being used, they just use them on the smaller lines. Those FL-9's are GORGEOUS.

Amazing video! Love to see more Metro North videos from the 90s. I'm surprise they ran 6 coaches back then even. Demand was probably low north of Croton compared to now.

Thanks, that was a great time to watch MNCR.
