They still have bridge plates over 4?! it was shut down when I was commuting to New Haven out of that ‘terminal’ (😉 I watched your GCT to New Haven Super Express video). Four has been shut down for about fours now! I assumed it was shut down because of catenary rework. But that cannot be the case anymore. 🤔 I used to sit at Bridgeport just to watch the trains go by. I miss doing that. Thank you for the wonderful memories. 😀
Hi Can you make a video of the former yard in Waterbury? I'm curious to learn more about this, and whether this can be used for a new freight or passenger hub center.
This is my former railroad (retired). Even though the train was on track 2- to gain access, you have to board from track FOUR. customers are still instructed to board trains from the track 4 platform, which is why tk 4 is displayed. In addition, they are not called ‘gang planks’ on the railroad, they are called bridge plates. FYI.✌🏾👍🏽

Gang planks. Just used it as an expression metaphorically
@@3985uprr no worries my friend! Just sharing. Love what you do!👍🏽
@@edwardadams7619 I will use the term bridge plates from now on
@edwardadams
''bridge plates'' _ I learned something, there
5:26 it sounds like the train is using 2 e-bells at the same time. Interesting
ACS64s usually do ring both bells at the same time. very unique feature.
good catch 🚋
I've been to Bridgeport. Plenty of action. Thanks Tim💚😀
5:09 how come that track is never used ever since those gang planks are there, is there a back story to it?
Always love the action on the NEC!!!
This was the day me and my bf got off at bridge port to take the fairy over to Long Island
0:46 they may be crap but they have GREAT K3LAs.!!!!
I agree there. You hear how good they are on my Norwalk to Danbury Road.
Had you been there a few hours later you would've seen 228 and a 7 car consist
Probably an equipment move.
@@3985uprrIt was doing a Waterbury rotation on this day.
@@3985uprr It ran up the branch as a revenue service. 60 minutes late due to mechanical problems
Those red stripes on the toothpaste tubes add a little something, no?
0:58 ex metro north locomotive, is that correct? The blue red and gray spot there?
Yessir. Repainted CTRail
@@3985uprr sweet!!
Bridgeport is actually my amtrak station. I live not far from thwre
Great video, what happened to the MBTA videos you posted? I sadly never got a chance to see the Middleboro one.
I decided to take them down unfortunately. I won’t elaborate.
@@3985uprrI Understand and respect your response. Keep up the great content!
5:16
Did you film the ferry ride?
What boat did you get?
No. Grand Republic up and Park City back.
@@3985uprr okay ✅
Why did you delete the last video? In Boston
I decided to for several reasons. I won’t elaborate but it was for the good of all.
@@3985uprr okay, I just hope that we could get more podcast talking/videos and I thought it was a cool dynamic
