Amtrak & MARC at New Carrollton Station

[TallNBlack]

This was my station growing up lol. I lived 20 minutes from New Carrolton station. Took the Metrorail all the time from here.

[TheHeavyload]

That's what I thought.

[TheHeavyload]

Great film!

Is the locomotive in Amtrak train no141 a swedish model?

It looks like the swedish Rc locomotive.

[SuperStarRendon]

@TheHeavyload Thank you. These locomotives where designed by ASEA, built by Electro-Motive Division.Just like the RC Locomotives, built by ASEA.

[SuperStarRendon]

@Trainlover4ever2006 Thanks

[Acela150Kid]

Good stuff!! But one small flaw.. 91 is the Silver Star! Ahhh Who cares!

[SuperStarRendon]

@Acela150Kid Yeah, I saw that... It's ok. I knew it was silver star, but got carry away in editing regionals.

[trainfart]

Excellent filming!

[SuperStarRendon]

@trainfart Thank you

[MrConraal]

Nice!

[SuperStarRendon]

@MrConraal Thanks

[NapierNimbus]

good shots - interesting to see brief shot of the inside of the coach - nice of the train manager to give you a wave

[SuperStarRendon]

@NapierNimbus Thanks. I have more shots of inside the coaches. I will make a video in the future.

[msmith624]

Next time I go to New Carrollton, I'm bringing my ID. I feel I was robbed back there.

[SuperStarRendon]

@msmith624 Sucks, I was afraid we were going to deal with that, but it was good no one bother us. We did have tickets to go back to Union Station in case.

[GenesisSanctuary]

Great job!

[SuperStarRendon]

@GenesisSanctuary Thanks

[murjax]

Great video. I see 141 was late. That's kind of unusual. I've been on that train at least 5 times and it's never late.

[SuperStarRendon]

@murjax thanks. Yeah, it was late by 2 hour or so.

[msmith624]

Weather or priority is sometimes an issue. There's been lots of issues lately with the equipment.

[SuperStarRendon]

@msmith624 Weather was bad on friday. Really windy. Hard to keep camera still with wind being really strong

[Railfan108]

feels like MSTS lol

[SuperStarRendon]

@Railfan108 Well I don't know how it feel like MSTS, cause don't have it. I remember someone saying that New Carrollton barely gets railfan. :)

[murjax]

@Railfan108 That's because you see more vids of New Carrollton in MSTS than in real life. That place doesn't get railfanned much.

[trainzrok]

splurged on the acela i see. looks like a great ride. i might just blow a ton of money away just to try it. great video

[SuperStarRendon]

@trainzrok It's a smooth ride compared to Regional or Silver Service. Mostly business people, but overall it was a great ride and made it to DC under 3 hours.

[trainzrok]

@SuperStarRendon Very good. Yeah, the amfleets can get a bit bouncy

[KHVEDOR]

Excellent video!

[SuperStarRendon]

@KHVEDOR Thank you. 

[cloudfater]

Very good quality and interesting video for Me

[SuperStarRendon]

@cloudfater Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it

[landoverdivision321]

Nice. Gotta love New Carrollton but with all of the security there (somewhat) I'm surprised they let anyone film there.

[trainkid16]

@landoverdivision321 As long as Amtrak is not the only user of the station, it's legal to film on their platforms.

[SuperStarRendon]

@trainkid16 That is correct. Next time I will bring tripod.

[msmith624]

Then that explains why I had issues because I filmed on a SUNDAY.

[SuperStarRendon]

@landoverdivision321 Thanks. We were waiting for MARC train, but figured let our train go by and continue to filmed. Never was approached.
