Hudson Freight: CSXT B749 drags Q431 into The Point along Metro North's Hudson Line

CSXT Croton West Yard based local freight crew B749 drags last night's road train Q431 into Oak Point after the train outlawed at Croton. Seen here passing Metro North's Hastings-on-Hudson, NY station, the train is less than 20 miles from destination. Consist is:

SD40-2 8840
SD40-2 8842
GP38-2 2718
GP38-2 2720
and 60 cars for Oak Point Yard, Bronx, NY.

At the end of the video, Metro North deadhead equipment turn train 2445 trundles its 8 M-7As up to Tarrytown to become #446.

Special thanks to April Dias for letting me test drive her Kodak EasyShare Z1275. This video was the last part of that test drive, which resulted in me learning I do NOT want to purchase any Kodak products in my search for a new digi/video camera.

why dont you like Kodak try the new Play sport Zx3 records in full HD 1080p and 720p 720p HD60 and WVGA I got one and done review and just uploaded a passing train clip but used WVGA mode for that recording

the kodak I used for this made so much damn noise while zooming out (0:15 to 0:19) it was unreal..... The camera's controls were also unnatural and it lacked features I would expect from any 100$ camera.....

Man. Killer work in high quality. That camera kicks ass.

the camera takes better video than mine, but its still a piece of crap......gotta keep lookin.....

Nice job - I still get a kick out of seeing CSX locos in the old Conrail blue - slow transition indeed! Is it just me, or did some of those flatbed cars have flat spots? Ditto the M7 consist! Dude you could beat a drum to that tune! I can't wait to railfan the Hudson again!
