Amtrak Train 241, the 7:05PM Empire Service Regional Train out of New York-Penn, meets Amtrak Train 68, the Adirondack, out of Montreal, along the Hudson Line at sundown at 7:57PM. Train 241 consists of Genesis P32ACDM 718 and 5 Amfleet I coaches, and Train 68 consists of Genesis P32ACDM and 5 Amfleet I coaches as well. Enjoy the beauty and splendor of a sunset along the Hudson, gleaming off of the trains. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on June 12th, 2008.

  • Sick as hell! Love that P42 phz 5, those cars are so hard to get out here in CA.

  • the Doppler Effect was properly demonstrated here

  • @LackawannaLtdVideos Nothing wrong with the main or rail. It is 261 territory signaled in both directions.

  • In Britain we call it 'wrong line working'...

  • this is y i wish there was double track were i live

  • @foughtwolf- It's the track itself. It's called superelevation, and it keeps the heavy freight cars from falling off the outside of the curve, and keeps faster trains, like Amtrak, from doing the same.

  • Why "wrong"?

    Why not explain in information?

  • Hey, that's 706!
