The northbound Meteor cruises into Winter Haven, Florida behind P42DC #68 and #141. Note the truck at the crossing slamming on his brakes as he sees the approaching train. It is extremely rare to find a Floridian who stops at a railroad crossing.

Watch in high quality!

  • whats so speical about this train

    i live in winter haven

  • Well, this particular one was filmed by 3 different railfans in 3 different cities on the same day, which is really rare. And the Silver Meteor is just awesome.

  • Great catch! I know murjax already mentioned it, but you are the third one to catch this train in the same day. I started it off by catching it in Deerfield.

  • Thanks! I'll add this as a response to your video.

  • I wonder what happened to the Heritage dorm cars that ran on the long distance trains....at least I don't see them anymore.

  • Hmm, interesting.

  • I think so.

  • At 3 different stations?

  • 3 guys caught the same 48 between Buffalo and Syracuse once.

  • Well Winter Haven comes before Orlando so he's actually the second person, but yeah, three people catching it is incredible.
