We experience a gorgeous day along the Metro North Hudson Line. In addition, we caught a number of heritage painted locomotives between New Haven, Conrail, and Beach Ball liveries. The “Conrail #201 and “Beach Ball #208 were each seen twice. Several “New Haven” heritage locos were seen also. Amtrak also put on a good show along with the MN M7’s and M3’s. This beautiful cooler weather demanded outdoor activity and I was most satisfied with the results.

I guess ghost engineers was off. Cool seeing Conductor Paul! I saw him once back in April when I was doing some photography of trains for my college

I’m a fan of the M3’s. Classic look with solid lines. Too bad they are becoming so rare.

Cool stuff Tim!!!!!! That day I went to Stamford CT and rode the Kawasaki M8s. Just outside of Harlem 125th street I saw 208 the beach ball heritage unit shove its train to Grand Central Terminal!!!!! I’ve seen 201 a couple times as well. And I often railfan the Hudson line of Metro North as well!!!! It’s a very scenic line. Glad you had a lovely day, I enjoyed myself in Stamford CT as well.

I wish that Metro North would paint a p32acdm in the original blue stripe scheme that they had in the 90s and early 2000s (just like how I wish Amtrak would paint a p42 in the original phase III scheme the p40s' had when they were first put into service)

Get that damn PC logo off the 230! It spoils that handsome McGinnis livery, and brings back bad memories from the PC takeover of the NH. Love the Conrail heritage unit and the Beach Ball P32. Great day, excellent video, as always!

Heritage units are my favorites as well because back in the 1990s my late dad took a photo picture of me in front of a FP40-2 which was a conrail symbol and also that I love that picture and one of these days I'll have to find those pictures of my dad taking me the pics in Elizabeth New Jersey yard and I love heritage units just like you do when you take video shots of heritage units again next time think about me Robert one of your friends who is a subscriber on your yourtube page the Conrail paint scheme I love that one because it reminded me of my late dad the 201 and the 208 locomotives as well very fresh paint in my opinion with the NH locomotives as well that I"LL like to take a You tube video of myself on there when I come to New York for my first video to dedicate it to my late dad.

They should have the M3s and the others painted green instead of blue. I get confused a lot thinking it's the Harlem Line.

An interesting follow-up, unless you've done it, would be to do a video (with the help of one or more of the various providers if you can get it from them, LIRR, Metro North, et al) on how third-rail electric trains work. Am I correct in that both over-running and under-running systems are in use in the region?

@3985uprr 10 ай бұрын

Yes they are. The intricacies of electronics are not my thing so you are asking the wrong person. If I mention something about electronics, chances are I don’t know what I’m talking about. I can only discuss what I observe or stories I hear about it.
