[alx2925]

Prob, Im not from here, ask someone who has videos of the NHV line here

[usuck329]

today i saw a providence and worcester freight train pass on those rails. i thought it was pretty awesome, since you dont see to much freight trains around here

[alx2925]

Nice. The only time I saw P&W on Metro North territory was one time when I was on my way to NY on the Acela, and we passed them in New Rochelle NY.

Where they doing trackwork on the express Tracks?

[amtrak905]

Yeah they were repairing the wires on the NY bound express track at the time, which I believe was #2.

[Train538]

It's actually track 1 but good guess though!

[donutboy617]

true i was filming mbta,amtrak trains in forest hills,ma and one of the employess told me i had to leave gay plus wat is the corridor clipper never seen it only in this vid!

[travelsonic]

Was this at the station on the platform, or from a parking lot or something nearby?

[donutboy617]

station platform

Great shots! Under Amtrak's stupid new photo rules, all of your videos are prohibited unless you had a ticket and were about to get on the train. That has to be the stupidest photo rule yet, even worse than NJT's that prohibited any photo of any train, even from public property. If enough of us make a stink about the rules, maybe Amtrak will change them.

[alx2925]

Yeah but they really apply it only at major stations such as New York, Boston, Washington ETC. Because I go down to stations like Kingston, Providence, and a few others and I dont get questioned. Plus This station here is on Metro North Territory (which Amtrak doesnt own), so they have their own rules. They say you can take pictures as long as you dont trespass in any way or dont interfere with the operations

[travelsonic]

"NJT's that prohibited any photo of any train, even from public property"

Good luck enforcing that.

What idiots.

[KingofTomedy]

It's the stupid terrorist attacks on 9/11 that caused these stupid rules.>:( It's caused so much paranoia in the transportation industry.

[travelsonic]

"It's the stupid terrorist attacks on 9/11 that caused these stupid rules.>:"

I disagree, it was the attacks that caused the inane hysteria that caused these logic-less rules.

Nice. The Corridor clipper is the Amtrak Geom car, they attach it to the back of Regionals to test out the tracks, see how the train performs.

[amtrak905]

Great vid

[PlTrMk689]

pretty sweet dude

[free2rtmey]

I love AEM-7 horns but I hate it when they hit high notes

[TNT314159]

Nice!

[murjax]

Awesome video. I see the BL20s have taken over the Danbury Branch. I thought at least one of them would've been a P32.

[rafigonzalez]

good work 5*

[mjsax2390]

How fast is the Acela going to be able to go on Metro North track once the track work is done?

[TNT314159]

Still probably not more than 90mp since Metro-North doesn't allow tilting

[trainboy32]

awesome video

[trainlvr7]

AWSOME VIDEO ONCE AGAIN!

[alx2925]

Shit!

[treesandcoffee]
