Amtrak 48 Lake Shore Limited Operations @ Albany, NY in 1996

Amtrak #48, the Lake Shore Limited, arrives at Albany-Rensselaer, NY station on October 29, 1996. The locomotives, coaches, sleeper and cafe separate from the rest of the train and move to the Boston track. The New York section with a dual power P32AC-DM locomotive, coaches and cafe backs onto the remaining train and depart for Penn Station, New York. The Boston section with 2 F40 locomotives becomes Amtrak #448. The relief engineer climbs aboard and the Lake Shore Limited departs for South Station, Boston, MA.

@1985MANAmericana yeah thats what I meant.

@gp40mc It's better than it was a few years ago when there was *no* BOS section. At least it's not a connecting train anymore.

@1985MANAmericana I wish the boston section was longer. But its better now than it was a few years ago when all it was was 3 amfleet cars. At least now it looks like a long distance train although a very short one.
