On Tuesday, September 22, 2009 we find NYNJ RR leased UPY1133, a SW-1500 running along First Avenue in Brooklyn on their way back to Bush Terminal Yard, having just worked the interchange and car float at the Brooklyn Army Terminal.

  • Next time Im on vacation I know where Im going to railfan. Thats so cool I had no Ideal that trains ran on the streets in NYC.

  • Occupy the brunch line....lol Extra "O" Video ***** Stars for Big Apple

  • Didn't know they used the big frieght haulers for the town track too!

  • they fixed that track up nicely. use to be more switches and tracks though their and the asphalt was tore up.

  • Awsome catch great video!!

  • That's an ex-Southern Pacific switcher. Notice how the roof headlights are right of center (as you face the locomotive). That's because there used to be Gyralites mounted left of center to balance them out. SP used to have Gyralights or Mars Lights on most of their locomotives at one time.

  • Wow! At last some footage of this area! I've been searching for stuff for ages. Found a few good sites like Forgotten NY etc. Please, if you wonder if you should bother getting out there and shooting more, take it from someone on the other side of the Globe.. it's appreciated.

    Good quality work too btw.

  • It's so weird to be driving to BAT and suddenly see this TRAIN on the street with all the cars! It's awesome.

  • Pretty rare to see ex-UP power in Brooklyn! And I thought they stopped using that piece of track on 1st avenue!

  • Awesome video 5*****
