The heat related speed restrictions you mentioned around 27:10 are due to high temperatures as measured on the rails at multiple places. As you may know, metal expands when heated so to minimize the chance of anything wonky happening, Amtrak makes engineers slow down. Things that could expand include the rails, catenary and expansion joints on bridges.
Waddupp playa, it’s been a minute since i been to the NEC. Miss these niggas runnin that fast. They can go up to 135mph along with Acelas along this section of the route
not the clips just the horns, I waved to the engineers to sound the horn at me and they tap it lightly sometimes they do it full blast sometimes they don’t
@@233CFH thanks, planning another one that will involves MARC trains along with SEPTA, Amtrak & NJ Transit & video footage traveling from station to station. I will start it in early Sept since MARC runs back to its full schedule starting August 30th
Because as you may know, it’s a long distance train there’s no scheduled departures north of ALX so they depart at w.e time yea it is rare for a LD train to run an hr early ahead of schedule because it’s often an hr+ late

And rails may be too hot I believe

You’re welcome
GREAT VIDEO BRO,
THANKS HOMIE
Sup Jayy Rock! Train 94 was hauling Playa, I haven't seen the ACS 64's running that fast in a minute.
Waddupp playa, it’s been a minute since i been to the NEC. Miss these niggas runnin that fast. They can go up to 135mph along with Acelas along this section of the route
@@jayydarailfaner549 the Regionals are limited to 125 because of the Amfleet cars.
@@connecticutmultimodaltrans8226 ik they do, i was mistaking i meant to put 125 sorry about that
I never been on a septa train before.
How did the keystone cab car get a GE steel bell?
Idk what a GE steel bell actually is & you gotta be a little more specific, I believe there are lots of keystone cab cars i caught in this video
Seems that AMTRAK shuffles the same powermove back and forth.
Are you talking about the back & forth move at Princeton Junction ?
Yessir this video was sick!
Thanks, in the process of making another one, this time ima be in other states besides NY, & NJ
@@jayydarailfaner549 Oh Ok thanks for the info.
Are the video clips high pitched? I'm 10 minutes in and that multilevel train bell to Jersey Avenue sounded a bit high pitched.
not the clips just the horns, I waved to the engineers to sound the horn at me and they tap it lightly sometimes they do it full blast sometimes they don’t
Well, great video nonetheless.
@@233CFH thanks, planning another one that will involves MARC trains along with SEPTA, Amtrak & NJ Transit & video footage traveling from station to station. I will start it in early Sept since MARC runs back to its full schedule starting August 30th
Yeah, I was gonna ask the same thing
Z
Where does the New Jersey transit go
Between New York & Trenton
2:40 how is it over an hour early????
Because as you may know, it’s a long distance train there’s no scheduled departures north of ALX so they depart at w.e time yea it is rare for a LD train to run an hr early ahead of schedule because it’s often an hr+ late
👍👍👍
Which one go from Pennsylvania to New York
Only Amtrak
Great video Jayy! Question: What do you use to record?
Thanks man i use my iPhone 11 pro max
Put it on x2 speed and pretend these are high speed trains.
Yo Comet IV cab car 5023 pause at 8:18. Don’t see those that often
True, it still runs around but no longer leads trains
