We spent a gorgeous sunny day in New London, Connecticut. The waterside area is a wonderful place to catch trains and boats coming and going constantly. This is also a rare place on the Northeast Corridor where there are railroad crossings and the trains blasting their horns for them. We see numerous Amtrak trains along with a few Shore Line East M8 mu trains. You will hear raised letter K5LA horns on the ACS64’s plus hybrid K5LA horns on the Acelas. The M8’s have Leslie RS2M horns. In addition, there is heavy ferry boat action here and you will hear a variety of boat horns on these ships.  I couldn’t tell you what kind of horns those are, but they are varied as well. It was a fun day capturing the ships on the rails and on the sea at this delightful seaside community. We conclude with highlights of a magical ferry boat ride back to Orient Point.
