Very nice video! Love the jazz music
Lou Freeway
An old video, for the most part I did Like it, but the music was may to LOUD and I listen to 40s Junction on SiriusXm
The funding mechanism comes from screwing crews out of overtime, not paying good penalty claims so this douchebag piece of shit can stand there and attempt to mumble thru a sentence. Pretty sentence.
One of the best train videos I seen in awhile
This is ehmazing
This was an excellent video and the music was perfect 👍👌
That was a really cool ride along Jerry! Really neat seeing where all it travels 😊🔥👏👏👏
bro the music is unbearable. we want to hear the motors, horns, bells, and track noise as the train runs.
Awesome video, thanks!
Get rid of the music, please.
I wish i could go on a cab ride on NJ Transit's newest locomotive the ALP45A it would be an great experience
where is that yard at the end? always wondered where they go after penn station
Sunnyside yard queens
Covering the beautiful sound of the engine with music.... What a waste
We need part two
Woooow, what the world!!! Why doesn't this phenomenal presentation and interview have more attention??? This was very interesting and easy to understand. I learned alot about the GP33 in a very short time. I saw these at a Buffalo yard last week and wondered what engines they were.
Please turn off the music. It ruined the video. What were you thinking
Turn off the music plz. Great video but horrible music to play along with the train ride.
Could you upload a version without the music on please?
Thanks.... love the music too !!!
Thank you grew up the north Jersey coast, refreshing not having the delay at South Amboy to change to electric, a great trip down memory lane.
You did god’s work. Nobody, and I mean nobody can even dream of having a driver’s cab view, with only the mercy of the driver and the company. I personally can’t thank you enough for just this one video.
Awesome video, I for one enjoyed the Jazz
Hey at the beginning that’s the engine I see like every week on Metra SWS.
Really enjoyed this
How where you aloud?
Buddy literally said “bogey” too much. 😂
I ❤ NJ Transit
I remember growing up in point pleasant it was the Pennsylvania railroad
NJ Transit ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The rolling stocks look much more modern than the MBTA vehicles.
Don't be stealing stuff from the train yard duh lol belongs to norfolk southern
I remember when the Norristown Terminal was a single track terminal many years ago. Extra property no doubt was aquired to make it a double track station.
Great video!
Look the same coaches that Marc train has.
Yup, the newer MARC IV cars are the same Bombardier MultiLevel cars that NJ Transit uses.
Look closely when there’s an outside view of the train near long branch it’s 4532 so the video is from another video
i used to live around there
Ahhh yes yes the north jersey costal line what would I do with out it been taking this train every day for the past 3 years never gets old
it would be better if there wasnt jazz music blasting the whole video
Cool. No stop at Secacus on the way to NYC Penn Station
Great video. Would have loved a more in depth tour. But oh man, the microphone. It needs to be put out of its misery and replaced with some quality equipment.
Great video!
Terrible music !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
junk
absolutely
He's a nice engineer
Just a word of advice, a video like this does much better without the music.
Yeah, I was so disappointed that the music was so loud!
This is a good video in spite of two gripes: 1) I enjoy modern big band jazz music, but in this case it was very distracting and unnecessary. 2) The constant use of the zoom lens in the first half of the video was annoying to watch; it "slowed down" the train. The cab views were interesting and I learned a lot about how these dual-mode locomotives are operated. The engineer seems like a cool guy.
Why this train driver is wearing gloves? Very strange looking, I must say. Greetings from european train driver.
It’s something that we do. No explanation for it.
@@aydenamaya7951 It is weird. I figured it was a manager thing, but to say y'all do it is odd. I don't think I know anybody who wears gloves in the cab or while running. East Coat thing perhaps?
@@michlo3393 Must be 😂
@@aydenamaya7951 watching him flip switches with those gloves on made me cringe. Im thinking I would fat finger everything doing that.
That is the train that came to my hometown
awaiting my call to take my medical exam for NJT LETP ! really hope one day ill be doing this route ! BTW, you're crossing the naveskink river @ 8:54 not the shrewsbury..awesome video though !
