Trains in Niantic, Connecticut

[nyshortline]

Compare the final scene in this video to the video "Amtrak Niantic, CT 1-2-89." EXACT SAME angle only some 20 years previous.

Awesome footage. My family goes here all the time; However I have yet to visit here. Someday I will. Great video, keep up the goodwork!

I remember hanging here all the time even before they electified this area to boston when the f40s ran through here. When did they change the speed limit on the niantic curve and why did they change it?

The bridge isnt in that good of condition. You can hear the cars banging against the joints in the rails. It needs to be replaced.

[nucj007]

Thanks to Obama, the bridge will be fixed or so I have been told. Its part of the economic stimulus money.

[adooma1984]

@nucj007 It's already in effect I just moved back up hear and their are crains over by the brige area. It's said to be replaced and completed by 2013.

Great Video.

Im going to guess something wrong with the alerter. I saw a conductor climb up into the cab.

[sportsmovieman]

Probably had signal problems ahead.

Or there was a delay ahead and continuing the go-ahead would've had a Casey Jones incident.

[ghostengineer]

Panning the camera is what he meant. I didnt think the panning was that bad. It was still a great video

Windy, huh? I like how you were able to get a shot of the entire Acela trainset. Also some good horn from the Acelas and the HHP8.
