Very well agree. Thanks!

Already got the 26th in the books! See you there!

As a kid, I would be at Jamaica to wait for the Cannonball to arrive Trk 8 and stand at Hall's end of the platform. That train was so long, Hall would clear them to foul that signal and interlocking by 3 cars and 2 Alco locos. Man what a show as they would notch up and give that smoke show as both Alcos pulling hard a combo of old Pennsylvania heavy weights 3 axle cars and long 3 axle Parlor cars with a parlor observation at the end. In the busy part of the summer more cars were added. 3 Locos was the normal for power 🚆👍

Thank you very much!

Will do!

Problem is if they have the door open (which they technically can't unless authorized by 204) then you need permission to record. It comes down to who you know, how you ask, and whether they say yes, or no.

@@MrMaster767 Oh, but I thought filming is legal in MTA Premises according to NYCT Rules of Conduct States : 1050.9. Which means that photography, filming or video recording in any facility or conveyance is permitted except that ancillary equipment such as lights, reflectors or tripods may not be used.

It is. It's just getting harder to do M3 RFWs with some new technology in the way.

@@MrMaster767 True lol

Absolutely!

The memories!

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you!

Thanks!

The Signal won't display. Might have been a mistake. As long as the signal isn't displayed. You can change switches without displaying a signal.

@@MrMaster767 yes but still. That other train was crossing right in front. That was insane

@@MrMaster767 I also move trains in an urban transportation agency and NEVER have I EVER seen this. And trust me… I’ve seen a whole lot. Even on the LIRR. But not on a crossover move. Nah. Doesn’t matter if that High Low home didn’t clear. That’s an interlocking. That’s insane Bro.

Thanks!

Indiana is so far behind, you have ancient Amtrak trains, mile long freight trains, and a depressing 3rd world rural landscape. All you people do is drive around in cars on narrow roads and highways. Life is dull and boring in Indiana, all the cities there are rust belt and run down, so much that you have to tune into New York just to see humanity and people who live in the present and future, that are thriving and making 5 times your income.

Plan out what works best for you!

Short bells are the alerter. Long bells mean the speed code is dropping.

@@MrMaster767 Thank You Sir.

Is it the equivalent of the AWS that is on British Railways then

I believe Line 2 they use.

No. Electrically 3rd Rail powered.

This is Mainline. Carries Oyster Bay, Port Jeff and Ronkonkoma branch customers!

oh the trains are fine, we can get from one station to the next with the subways within a little over a minute if you’re only talking about the city, but if you go wayyy out to the eastern side of long island then yeah that’s where the speed kinda just fades out because you’re traveling longer distances and the Long Island Rail Road mainly takes around an hour using the Ronkonkoma line to get to the big city from the middle of the island and vice versa. however if you’re someone by montauk and take the Montauk branch/line it’ll take you 3 OR 4 HOURS!!! now compare that to china who can travel from Beijing to Hong Kong in ONLY 6-8 HOURS!!! and for us Americans it would take literally a day or 3 to travel that distance on train. So yeah if you’re only traveling on short distances sure it’s effective but long distances? hell nah… the only real most effective train line that exists is the north east corridor with our fastest train from Boston to Washington… everything else in the US is not going to be a very fast or easy trip using train if we compare it to other places.

You are on the west coast discussing east coast transit and mobility. You guys depend on freeways which are always jammed with cars, buses, and trucks. Your rail networks are the most outdated and depressing out west. They don't even have electrification. The trains out west use the push and pull method. You seem fixated on non-American transit services, maybe you should go live there and ride their trains.

That “depressing” corridor carries more passengers per day than any other train system in the world and it’s done safely and efficiently. And MY heart goes out to you regarding your disastrous CA High Speed rail project. How’s that working out?
