June 15, 2007 - 13:00ish. Southbound MN Inspection train with the two ex. Phoebe Snow observation cars MN 1 and MN 2 bracketing former New York Central grill car MN 3. The train is powered by P-32-ACDMs 201 and 203 - in the NEW paint scheme.

The train is on the return leg of its round trip excursion from GCT to Wassaic. This video was filmed by my girlfriend while I shot slides. Video by H.D. 6/15/07 - GREAT JOB HEATHER!

  • is that goin bk to GCT? or to wassaic?....how did it come into GCT?....with the phoebe car as a cab car?

  • no, this is on the SB return to GCT, and those phoebe snow cars are not "cab control" capable - they will get shoved into the bumping block - they are run in engine first - just like an Amtrak train.

    A common move when they are going to be used is to bring the entire consist in the night before and run it around the loop and then back it into whatever track it is to be staged on....

  • and then upon return to GCT they'll just pull into the block engine first and get switched out after discharging the execs.

  • This is an inspection train - the railroad brass gets to inspect the railroad. On this occasion thought - I believe it was actually to inspect the work on the new interlockings at Pleasantville and Mount Kisco - but I'm not 100% certain..... TO the person who posted asking about this - sorry I hit the spam button on your comment by accident..

  • Yeah me too

  • Thats ok, No hard feelings and thanks for answering the question.

  • lightning strips would look cool

  • More McGinnis is cool with me - but what I really wanna see is Lightning Stripes! Now that would make me wanna shoot genny's (even if only for a minute).

  • Hah! That's funny right there! Personally, I'd rather see more units go into McGinnis... or... better yet, bring back the FL9's!

  • It couldn't get much worse than the platinum mist G-string.....
