3:28:06 You’re actually lucky because New York Penn Station is actually where your Amtrak Acela Express Train that you choose will be terminating! 😀

The Pacific Surfliner is the best train ever in CA

Beautiful!

Awesome footage! I'm not very familiar with the PL42AC locomotives (I havent been around any NJ Transit operations) but looks-wise to me they are a mixture of a P42 Genesis, F40PH, and Charger locomotive all mashed together into one. I will have to venture down and observe the Northeast Corridor myself someday! Thanks for posting this footage!

Wow! I’ve never been on the Lake Shore Limited! I heard it meets the Capitol Limited in Ohio

Great video

That's awesome that you included the railcam footage from Davisville. That cam is on my house =)

Just a quick correction. At 8:04 you were at Plains interlocking. At 8:22 you were passing Forest Hills. At 8:27 is when you entered Forest interlocking. Liked and subscribed!

Is this on the Acela?

Do you know how to be able to drive trains there?

I plan on doing that when they resume service north of Saratoga

My wife and I hope to do that next summer when we go to San Diego. I want to take a ride up to Fullerton and back for the day. What are the trains to and from Albany that I can get a rear view possibly. I may have to take the train from Plattsburgh to New York one day and I think that train might be possible.

Excellent video my friends awesome like 👍🏻 Greeting from Argentina nuevo subcritor suscribete 😊

What a beautiful video! I'm a Korean creator. Let's be friends!

❤❤❤❤❤🎉🇺🇸❤️👍👍👍👍⚡️🚆🎁

I came to see the interior of the car, it took awhile, but that was a nice walkthrough, inspire of Miss "I don't want tone filmed"!

素晴らしい😊 Japanese

Great video I love it!! It’s an awesome one

Great video Nathan

Wow the Southwestern US is wild. Imagine traversing between desert and snow and desert and snow over and over again!

7:02 anyone know if that diamond is temporary? I’m only curious because it’s got wooden ties, and almost every other new crossover/switch/track component is all concrete with moveable frog points.

I think its absurd that Metro North has so many restrictions for trains. Trains are limited to 90mph and Acela isn't allowed to use the tilt system. Why would people need to transfer to train #66 if they both go to Boston?

How do I shoot a train ride with an iPhone and insert the speedometer readings into it?

june 25th my bday lol

I liked seeing the changes in the catenary infrastructure between the sections of the route. Great vid!

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,awesome video......I had an uncle that owned a home just city blocks from the viaduct , and approaching the great bridge east into the NEC......,,,,as a kid upon visits to his house , I was always glued to the window chair in the kitchen [second story upstairs] , staring into time , dreaming as the child , waiting for a train to see.............Luckily on Sundays I seen freights,,,,can't remember passenger trains and gg ones ; I remember the bricks ; the red bricks , the GE electric powerhouses,,,,that were awesome engines.....I saw near my bklyn home.......as an adult , I did simple research and learned all the connections.............Thanks for this communication.............

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,thank you for that fine boose ride view..................I was born in 1951 ,,,,,,, at two years old my family had a house in brooklyn ny,,,,,As a two year old , my mom was curious at how excited i had become with all the noise , and smoke from trains passing the end of our street , that had energized her little boy......,,the NYC RR owned tracks across bklyn into queens ny and they connected to the tracks just outside sunnyside yard on to the hellgate bridge into the bronx..................I am a gifted machinist gearhead at 73 years here........................I thank GOD , for he provided me with great parents , and health........................ as I still build and ride my harleys today.....................................

3:02:40 , Acela

Loved it!

Nice!

I put highlights of the entire weekend on one video and it turned out to be one huge hornfest. Heard many great horns.

This is awesome to see its incredible how the engineering and structures are still there for the Northeast corridor from NYC to Boston granted the New Haven to Boston section being newer. Also curious on the New London Station in which is the third track going to be electrified since it was shown on an Amtrak official document of construction but nothing has happened there? Which is weird doesn't it disrupt service on the NEC Amtrak services and SLE?

@51:01 Why is there a gap there? Do the trains just lower the pantographs and coast across?

Thanks for the great video in 1999 between Christmas and New Year's I took a train from St Louis to Chicago to Boston to New York City back to Chicago and back to St Louis I was on these tracks at night so I got to see what I missed thanks for the great video

I’m from Philly 30 St station platforms are so dark , and dingy, It does not match how the inside of the station is

I take the Lake Shore from Buffalo to NYC. I catch it at like 1:30am so that I can arrive in New York by 10am. The last leg down through the Hudson Valley is one of the most scenic train routes in America. And like many fabulous train routes, that is the only way to see it. Happy travelling!

Great video , very good info, you call out interlocks and trains like an expert.

Forget The Avengers. *This* is the crossover event of the century!

You made a rear view NY- Boston, Alan Fisher made a rear view NY- Washington, now theirs a rear view of the whole NEC!!

Was a pleasure to railfan with you the other day. I’m gonna put out a video when this weekend is completed getting this and other trains on other days. Spaghetti put on a good show for you.

Have you considered the use of a scanner to pick up communication between the engineers and conductors, also messages from the defect detectors?

Awesome. I was a few stops south at Bay Shore

Nice video. 😊😊😊 Amtrak needs to upgrade the line between NYC and New Haven as soon as possible. 2 hrs to travel 80 miles is unacceptable and downright embarrassing for America.

Great video although you missed some CPs. 32:50 BNSF refers to it as just CP Fullerton these days. 34:15 CP Orangethorpe MP 166.2; first CP on the Metrolink Orange Sub 38:45 CP Stadium MP 170.3 53:41 CP Yale MP 181.6 1:01:55 CP Lettengarver MP 189.3 1:03:47 CP Solow MP 192.2 1:04:31 CP Crown MP 193.3 1:05:45 CP Avery is now CP Camino MP 194.5; following the double tracking project through south Laguna Niguel completed in 2020. 1:08:50 CP Oso is now CP Trabuco MP 195.7; now the south end of the double track main through OC. 1:09:36 The former site of CP Oso now home to a defect detector originally located at the site of CP Camino prior to the double tracking. 1:43:24 The whole site is CP Mesa following a double tracking project completed in 2014. 2:25:12 CP Elvira and Morena were retired following the completion of double tracking through Rose Canyon. 2:30:18 Spelled CP Cudahy 2:34:53 CP Convair MP 265.2 All info from: dot.ca.gov/-/media/dot-media/programs/rail-mass-transportation/documents/f0009927-ca-rail-schematics-a11y.pdf

80 originates in Long Island City. I always make those mistakes
