  • When I lived there, there were a lot of GP38s and P42s with New Haven livery's (as of 2005), and even a pair of F9s with old Metro North paint schemes based at Bridgeport that ran the Danbury train. But I never saw a livery like the one at 1:00. Have they been re painted?

    Also, what train is that at 1:00? The Waterbury train?

  • There are actually about a dozen of them sitting in the New haven Yard right now still in MN paint, and yes it is a waturbury train at 1 min

  • Hasn't anyone notice the New York Giants logo in front of the GP40 Metro-North train (on 6:52) going to Waterbury?

  • Yes I Did notice that

  • What are those things on the catenary wire between the catenary poles? how are they held up if they look like they are just suspended on the wire itself.

  • Brings back memories. I lived in Stratford from when I was 3 to 9 years old. My Dad would take me to the Station every once in a while and we would watch for trains, or ride the Metro North to New Haven and back. Now living in south Texas, we have all the freight trains they don't have up north, but it gets pretty boring, and the only passenger service is the Amtrak Sunset Limited and Texas Eagle. I like Texas, and prefer it over CT, but I miss that place.

    Thanks for posting. :)

  • @Batboymeister that is a BL20GH not a GP40

  • @Batboymeister no one knows who put it there the engine got the nickname "big blue"

  • I'm just curious. on the MUs. Is it possible to walkthrough the entire train from the front to the rear, or can you only pass through between the A and B ends of the cars?

  • Batboymeister: they are the BL20's not GP38's

  • Where's my train?

  • its a BL-20
