    Short preview of my 3 hour jaunt @ Botanical Gardens. With both the New Haven and Harlem Lines passing through here, it can get pretty busy during the peak hours. Stay tuned for the full length video. Enjoy =)

    _Amazing how you covered all of MNRR's motive power (East of Hudson) in one smooth, continuous take!_ Incredible work, Fanrailer.

      Looks like Metro-North has far better train frequency than the subway. Sometimes I had to wait 20 mins for a subway train!

    Now that was interesting? I didn't know there were single non-control M8 cars? You can see in the the 5 car M8 around 4:40 mark.

    5:12 M7 makes his appearance, 5:18 M3A appears.
    Announcer: Well folks there’s an M7 coming! Wait, what’s this? An M3A appears! It’s a race! It’s a race between two generations of metro north!
    M7: I am gonna win!
    M3A: No! I am!
    M7: No, I AM!
    M3A: I am!
    M7: New trains are better!
    M3A: Old ones get more attention!
    M7: Old is DUMB!
    M3A: New Is LAME!
    Announcer: IT LOOKS LIKE ITS GONNA BE CLOSE BUT THE M3A PULLS IT OFF AT THE LAST SECOND!!! The M3A wins! Hooray for the older generation!
    M3A: I told you older is better!
    M7: you haven’t seen the last of me Grandpa! As soon as I’m done picking up these passengers, i’m coming for you for a rematch!

    It is amazing to see the M8's draw an ark from the third rail @ the 4:20 mark, because bottom contact third rail dosen't ark as much as top contact third rail.

    Tomorrow the MTA is suspending service on the Hudson Line between Tarrytown and Irvington because they are dismantling a deck from the old Tappan Zee bridge. I'm letting you know so if you want to check it out you can

      @Christopher Crepon Yes, but you do know that both the old and new bridges were above the Hudson Line, didn't you?
      I saw part of the bridge over the Hudson Line dismantled in November 2017. I kick myself to this day for not getting a picture of it.

  • @EpicThe112
    @EpicThe112 Před 5 lety +1

    Can you actually run a set of 10 car M7A trains towards Brewster North Southeast or not. the simple reason for this is that the M9s do take the same power output as M7A

    This had to be the worse railroad in the country. Train breaks down, no announcement. Then have to wait for another train. And they block off the head car on a late crowded train, so there employees can have there own car to sit in. Now there is no social distancing because the tesin is too crowded, wat to go assholes....
