That train was headed to Oak Point Yard in the Bronx, NY. But thats really not that long of a train - Metro North imposes a 125-car, 8,000-foot limit on freight trains on their tracks - where as over on an actual freight line it might be 150+ cars and 10,000+ feet.
First of all - there is no "hudson riverline". There is the HUDSON LINE which is Metro North's line on the EAST side of the river (shown in some clips in this video), and the RIVER LINE (which is CSX's freight route from Selkirk to North Jersey - which is NOT shown at all in this video).
Next - where do you see M2s on the Hudson Line? The only place M2s appear in this video is at LARCHMONT which unless I'm sadly mistaken is on Metro North's NEW HAVEN LINE.
Josh as alaways I enjoy Your Videos. good stuff and I was wondering if they still do Deliviries for Stella Doro Cookies I know spelled the second of the companies name wrong. If you ever could get a video of them doing the deliveries that would be awsome.
Stella Doro has not been served by rail in more than 15 years now. I WISH they were still - also their plant next to the Degan in the Bronx will be closed soon as the owners are anti-union assholes.
@7:54, man, that is the longest train Ive ever seen in my life, lol. Where was that bad boy going?

I thought that the only freight movement through mount Vernon west was to the potato Chip Factory

What potato chip factory? The only freight thru MVW is indeed potatoes but its for Endico - the makers of Sally Sherman Potato Salad, etc....
