November 25, 2009: The day before Thanksgiving on the NEC at Cornwell Heights, Pa

It was the day before thanksgiving, a normally busy travel day for the Northeast Corridor. I must have showed up at the wrong time, because all trains were regular trains, and the cold rain didn't help. Plenty of horn shows today, anything from Nathan K5LA's to Leslie RS3L's, SEPTA Silverliners to NS GP38-2 (on a rare, unknown run from Morrisville to most likely Frankford Junction) I have you covered. Here's the video, enjoy!

Note: at 0:56, tittle should say 133, not 171.

There weren't any extras (i.e. Commuter sets) running on Wednesday, only on Sunday.

I found that one out the hard way, but don't worry, I went back out on Sunday.

I was the engineer of Amtrak 133. I saw 2 kids taking video that day and I emailed hotgirldater thinking it was him. Hope you enjoyed the horn show I gave you?

For one thing, thank you for the correction about my video, and that was you? Thanks for that great horn show.

It's possible i railfanned this day as well. I remember i was in the rain and i got a nice horn show from 950.

Just a correction to your video which I couldnt see from my Blackberry Storm 2. I came thru on train 133 and you have the train listed as 171. We were probably a good 20 minutes behind 171.

Thanks, and try being on that train with that happening.

I hope so.
