Very nice!

[ljeff1000]

Was that a service train at 2:28?

[jimmygt4]

strange that the tracks are all so super-elevated in such a slow speed area...

[SUBWAY125]

Why was there sooo much screaming in the backround?

[SuperStarRendon]

@SUBWAY125 There is a children playground near the tracks.

[SUBWAY125]

@SuperStarRendon Ah, have you ever thought about railfanning at Mt. Pleasent?

[GSXRMark99]

[SuperStarRendon]

@GSXRMark99 Thanks. Yeah, it was nice to hear the horns.... :)

HI :: I see that in this picture there are two tracks, and there are such plans to add an additional one or two tracks how would this work? Also, would this crossing be eliminated cause a lot of trains pass through this station, and do you have a video of a freight train passing through the station?

[CuseRecorder]

Man, i wish i lived down there. Great video!

[SuperStarRendon]

@CuseRecorder Thanks

what did 701 hit?

[jfsa380]

those mn cab cars make me cringe every time they sound their horn, what horn is it, are they made that way, why are they toned in a such way, why not sweeter like amtrak?

[SuperStarRendon]

@jfsa380 Metro-North cars have a leslie Horn

[Thunderheadpros]

great vid.... One question: The third-rail obviosly dosen't cross the road at the grade crossing, so how do the P32s and P42s get their electricty when going across the grade crossing?

[SuperStarRendon]

@Thunderheadpros These train all run on diesel until it reach Penn Station or Grand Central, since they aren't allowed to run on diesel

[OGICHI21]

@SuperStarRendon well not counting some P42's because some of them don't have the 3rd rail shoe feature on their trucks

[SuperStarRendon]

@OGICHI21 Only P32's run in this line. P42's run from Albany and up.

@Thunderheadpros Although these consists are burning diesel, in places where 3rd rail consists do cross grade crossings, they get across the same way electric trains get across many bridges, they coast. If you ever ride down the NE Corridor, particularly the NYC-New Haven route, it happens several times over river bridges.

[TEMPLE7D]

@Thunderheadpros even when trains run fully on 3rd rail electric, they can go over crossing have have power for limited time

[AmtrakPatrick]

Excellent video. That must be a good place to watch trains. I've only ridden through there on trains.

[SuperStarRendon]

@AmtrakPatrick Thanks.
