Heritage Adventures in New Haven and Beyond
Got lucky these past few outings spotting a few heritage locomotives on different occasions on the Hartford Line.
00:00 - Around 7:28am Amtrak Regional No. 143 (with Heritage Unit 125) arrives at its second to last stop on diesel before the electric switch.
02:00 - At 8:20am Hartford Line Train No. 6400 zooms past the other side of Devine Street crossing.
02:24 - Northbound Amtrak Vermonter No. 54 with Heritage Unit 125 slapped on the front (after being taken off Regional 143 earlier that day)
02:36 - Partially missing Amtrak Hartford Line No. 465 at a new spot in North Haven behind Big Y Supermarket on Washington Ave
02:45 - Southbound CT Rail Hartford Line led by diesel 6708 on a gloomy afternoon.
03:30 - Northbound CT Rail No. 6454 led by Mafersa coach and a clean RS2M horn normally heard on Metro North lines.
05:12 - Northbound Vermonter No. 54 on a Saturday afternoon passing through Wallingford Station. (Apologies for the audio clipping and distortion here. I had my mic levels too high).

The Beauty of Bethel • Metro North Danbury Line
zhlédnutí 282Před 16 hodinami
Bethel, Connecticut is truly a sight to behold. If I had the means, I'd love to call this place home. This spot is part of the well-known Metro North Danbury Line, just one stop away from the final destination, Danbury. It's nestled right in the heart of a natural paradise. Serene and free from the hustle and bustle of a city, with only the sounds of nature and distant train whistles. I can't w...

    • @dock_yard1149
      @dock_yard1149 Před měsícem

      The Danbury branch is a long, curving upgrade. Rises up over 400 ft in about 14 miles between SoNo and Topstone (town of Redding). Then descends another 60 or so from there into Danbury. So the end with the 2 P&W units will pull up the hill, while the single rear unit pushes where/when needed. Both ends are crewed, this is not a DPU. The train returns back to CH with empties, clearing the Metro North lines well before AM rush.
