Three for the price of one at Hunterspoint Avenue

Here we are at Hunterspoint Avenue in Queens, where we see three trains for the price of one video. First up, we see LIRR Train 566, the Oyster Bay Branch express to Oyster Bay. 566 consists of DM30AC 516 and 4 C-3 bi-level coaches with cab car 5021 bringing up the markers. Second, we see Amtrak Empire Service Regional Train 241, the regional train to Albany-Rensselaer, as it heads into the East River Tunnel so it can load its passengers at New York Penn Station. 241 consists of Genesis P32ACDM 700 and 4 Amfleet I coaches and one Amfleet I cafe. The horn you hear blowing in the background after 700 blows is a LIRR 12 car set of M3's. The third train we see is a Flushing-Main bound 7 Train with 11 R62A's. If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me. Comments are welcome. The video was taken on March 30th, 2009.
