Morning Train Traffic at Canton Junction
An interesting hour at Canton Junction. Due to the track work, we didn't get any trains at full speed, and the inbound seen at the beginning of the video ended up 40-50 minutes delayed while they waited for clearance.

GP40MC Return to the Southside! MBTA and Amtrak in Mansfield, MA
zhlédnutí 614Před 21 dnem
Some MBTA and Amtrak action in Mansfield, MA. I got lucky enough to see GP40MC-3 #1138, a fresh rebuild that had been put in service on the South side. This marked the first time in years that a GP40MC had solo led a Southside revenue train. Later, the 1138 was put on CapeFLYER service, and has since been delegated to work service. 1138's sister unit, 1117, has entered revenue service up north....

Hi
Hi control point donelson
Blud thought he wouldn’t be late for sure if he added more locomotives
He was actually 20 minutes early
Readville MENTIONED!?
In a few years when another person sees this video, they will wonder why anyone watched the whole thing.
I sure hope not - it seems more likely to me that someone will watch this and wonder why we let our transit look like this
Green
Why do they have that stupid fence
They're going to build a high level platform there
Is there a construction date?Also, thank you for the info.I did not know that @@CPForgeProductions
@@MC_E_Music not sure when it'll be finished, but I'm in Franklin frequently so I'll continue posting updates
Mini high soon!
Yessir! Can't wait!
Welcome to Boston MBTA Hyundai-Rotem CTC-5 cab car #1857. The MBTA’S NEWEST CAB CAR, very SHINY and BRAND SPANKING NEW. 🤩
Just a heads up, 1859 entered service two and a half weeks ago. 883, 884 and 1864, 1865 delivered on the afternoon of 06/19/24. 885, 886 and 1866, 1867 will arrive next month, followed by 1868, 1869 and 1870 in mid-August, once those three cab cars are delivered, the full order will finally be completed. By December 2024, all 83 new Rotems should be in service. 1860 will be next to enter service sometime next week, followed by 1861 in early July.
Do you know anything about 1832,1833 and their trailers? I don’t think they’ve ever been in service but i’ve seen videos of them in Massachusetts.
No, I don’t know why those four haven’t entered service yet. They have been listed as in testing since delivery in the fall of 2022. 1830, 1831 and 849, 850 entered service in mid-April 2023, then they just skipped to 1834 and 853. I wonder if 1832, 1833 and 851, 852 will ever enter service also.
@@ericschwartz3559 I’ve seen 1834 on the NEC before, I don’t even remember it testing.
I was one station before you lol, I was at west natick
Nice, everyone was out for this thing lol
Middle duo could use a good clean!
True!
soothing mbta asmr xD

Passing track shenanigans
That probably came from Worcester because to me it seems like the Worcester Line gets new stuff first for the south side
Now that the Comets are almost retired, the new stuff is pretty evenly distributed
@CPForgeProductions Oh ok. I live in Connecticut so when I do take the commuter rail I take the Worcester Line because it's the closest to Connecticut otherwise I take the D branch of the Green Line from Newton
Can’t wait to hear that m5 irl
It's a beautiful sound
@@CPForgeProductions yea I love the m3’s as is.
those speakers do not sound good at all
you were allowed in? lucky
It was part of Railcamp, we were with Amtrak the first two days and got to see a bunch of rare stuff
Great video well done! High quality content!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed
Also why is half of the train catenaries pantographs faced either South or Northbound but the tail end A/B multiple unit cars forward opposite. Looks like Arrow III’s where it doesn’t matter how the trains are turned around
I'm not sure why they're like that, Metro North isn't my main area of expertise but but M8s aren't bound to a set configuration, Ive seen some interesting sets in my little time on the territory
A video was shown. This is a gap due to the non-installation of catenary through a draw bridge. Before and after the section of draw, there’s a twilight zone, since it can’t lift the catenary with the rails, so the trains have to coast. They coast entirely through this gap, and catenary lowers or raises based on catenary height, reattaching to power, in which you can continue controlling. You can only coast between. However unlike Kawasaki M8’s as stated in Cos Cob, Amtrak has one pantograph. You’re forced to coast and not mess with the power, so unlike having 4-8 pantographs (8-12 cars), Amtrak can’t afford to mess up this floating coast move with no wires, or they will screw up their own power. They must follow all coast instructions and not screw up, or soon they’ll be stuck in the center with no catenary, or mess up future start up ability when reconnected. M8’s have a chance thanks to them being EMU.
Yeah, it's definitely harder for Amtrak. I was hoping to get a video of them going over, but missed them by a minute. I stopped here on my way up from New Jersey after seeing another video about this.
I have a question why are the trains configured in that way and the second part is I have an observation the hsp46 locomotives are starting to show age
Bilevel directly behind the locomotive is for ADA compliance, which allows boarding at hi-level platforms. The bilevel cabcars are the only cabcars that can operate on the Southside trains due to cab signals, safety systems, etc. The Comet cars are often used off-peak since they don't need the capacity of a full bilevel consist. And yeah, the HSP46s are almost exactly 10 years old (entered service April 16, 2014) and they are starting to show it.
Appreciate the feedback @@CPForgeProductions
Love the camera angle on this video
Thanks!
It’s annoying when foamers film you 😂 go kick rocks instead!
Womp womp
Great video!
Thanks!
I think I was on that train on the same day I even post a video about it on my channel that’s so funny!!! I was literally on it seven days ago!
This was filmed in January
@@CPForgeProductions oh, ok thanks for letting me know.
Was this in the morning or afternoon? Btw I suggest a new intro for each month possibly.
Afternoon, and I don't upload enough to make it worth making a new intro every month. I might update this one soon with newer clips but I don't think I'll change it monthly
thank you very much! i enjoyed it a lot. best from berlin/germany
Glad you enjoyed it!

Nice seeing you at North Sta today! The person next to me was middleboro/lakeville railfan too.
Nice meeting you guys!
Why do I feel like you posted this multiple times because I recognized that last shot with a train is going over the bridge
It's a very popular shot that I and other people have used many times. I've posted that location multiple times but this is the first time I've published these specific videos
Magnificent catches of the trains coming by and pass at the stations, i like it 5 stars. Thumbs up. Keep up the great work, my friend, i subbed your channel, Greetings from Portugal to the USA.
Thanks for the support, glad you enjoyed!
@@CPForgeProductions my pleasure.
