    On April 3rd-10th, I went on another little swing around the East Coast. This time, I hit up some new locations that I've been wanting to hit for a very long time as well as some previously visited locations.
    In this video, I venture out to Princeton Junction, NJ, located between Trenton and Newark for some High-Speed Amtrak and New Jersey Transit Action on the Northeast Corridor. Here, we see everything from Northeast Regionals, Keystone Services, Acela, and Silver Services, New Jersey Transit Trains on both the NEC Line and the little short line to Princeton called the "Dinky", and even a power move consisting of 3 Amtrak Gensets and an Amtrak Geep.
    Enjoy the Video!

    I can see that a number of the Northeast Regional services you claimed here Dom, had double-ended ACS-64's. I wonder if they're doing it to demonstrate less moving around for ACS-64's when the new Airo sets come into service.

      I’ve heard that they’re trying this method for faster turnaround times.

      @@sjrailfan35 Yeah that's what I meant, although it kinda does puzzle me of how the Airo sets will turn out seeing as they will have a power generator unit inbetween the coaches and ALC-42E locomotives. Why couldn't they just decide for the locomotives to be dual-mode powered with themselves using a pantograph AND running on diesel power? That's a very unusual combo if you ask as it would look like the ALC-42E's would be on diesel only, just with something spare attached using the pantograph. An EMU version of those (even if they ordered some other type of EMU not being Siemens Airo coaches) would've also been just as useful doing the electrified-only runs on the Northeast Regional (Boston South Station to Washington DC Union Station) and the Keystone route.

    What camera did you use? Also, I love the clacking sounds of the tracks, so satisfying
