NYS&W 4054 Leads NECR 324 South At Belchertown And Other Trains.

As Luck Would Have It, I Was Coming Through Belchertown On RT 9, When I Hear The NECR Dispatcher Say That NYSW 4054 Was South And Clear Of Milepost 90 (Leverett MA) So My Mother and I Went To Hamilton ST In Belchertown And Waited Until The Horn Was Heard, And What A Horn It Was! He MAde Good Work Of This Hill. The 2nd Clip Was The Gates Going Up On Lake Pleasant RD, In Montague MA, I Missed A Train :-/

The 3rd Clip is The Vermonter At Federal St In Belchertown With It's Newer Signals. Engines 20, And 106.

Enjoy!

At 1:16, it sounds like there was someone trying to jump the tracks or something.

I Agree With You There, There Are Tons Of Crossings In The Area.

What a DYNAMIC DUO! SD-70M & SD40-2 blasting through that crossing at Notch 8.

Music to my ears! 7000 of EMD RAW HORSEPOWER! Chill Out ,GE!

@JerseyGTO I know your comment is a year old, but as far as I know Susquehanna's engines ditch lights NEVER flash. None of the SD40T-2's SD45's or SD40-2's have flashing lights. Same deal with the SD70M's.

Great catch, not a bad sounding K3LA either.

I LOVE THAT SCENE WHERE THE AMTRAK TRAIN WAS FROM

[Atdriscoll94]

Great Video! I like the horn of 4054!

That engine is leased to the IORY. The Indiana & Ohio Railway.

I love the echos of that first train. The anticipation just builds each time you hear it.

Great video! I couldn't help but notice that the ditch lights didn't flash when the horn was used. They used to when the 4054 was on the NYS&W. Any idea on the reason for the change?
