4K/60p: LIRR M3 Front Window Long Beach to Jamaica
Вставка
- Опубліковано 15 вер 2024
- From last week. Had an M3 to going here but also Hempstead about 15 minutes apart at Jamaica and had to choose one or the other. Ended up choosing this as the Window on the Hempstead one was unavailable. After arriving at Long Beach, shot some photos and then made my to the West End to start setting up for the trip back. The weather got so much better while we were crossing over the bridge heading toward Island Park!

Been to Island Park, Long Beach and Jamaica Station. I grew up on Long Island. Great video. Still go back and ride the LIRR.
Excellent!
Your TRAIN VIDEOS are VERY RELAXING!
Always enjoyable! Thanks for watching!
Love, your videos, its Pentrex type quality and it's done Subway style ( out the front ) which is always a good thing....and clear!!!!!!
Amazing ride right there! Even the Long Beach branch seems to have better infrastructure then the Main Line with those metal poles between Island Park & Oceanside, and the wood ones don't look bad either. The Atlantic Branch seems faster between Valley & Jamaica than the Montauk/Babylon routing, but there were three eastbound Babylon Branch trains in a row that passed you. Looks like alot of people heading to the City.
Rebuilt after Sandy maybe?
I think it is a from since NYC is at west and Long Island is at east.
I watch your M3 videos like movies. They are just awesome! Keep up the good work!
Thanks!
Any time. I was on an M7 on Sunday, and while idle in Penn, the engineer let me give a blast on the horn!
@@_extra9126 Be careful doing that!
Yes, we made sure no people were in front. He was surprised I knew where the horn was, but I told him I watch your TSW videos.
@@_extra9126 Gotcha. What's your ETA for Mineola Friday? I have things to do but still looking to show up in some way.
One word: BRILLIANT!
I JUST subscribed as I found the 1st video that I watched nothing short of spectacular. Speaking of M3's, as a model railroading enthusiast I'm disappointed that no one saw fit to make an HO-scale model of the M3 and M7 (the M7 is available in O-scale from Lionel). My meager efforts to convince Atlas Trains and Rapido to consider it have failed. Great video!
Thanks!
M1/3's were made in brass, might have been shell's only. I have no more inf then that.
@@johnfitzgerald764
Thanks John, I have the tendency to stay away from brass $$$$$$$$$$ then having to add the chassis, trucks/wheels, motor, possible interior and that raises the cost through the stratosphere, so no thanks to brass but thanks to you for your input. Island Modelworks in New York on Long Island offers shells made in Resin of the M7 & M8, the M3's are out of stock if not production if memory serves me. I'm considering the M7/M8.
@@bhigdaddymark Maybe one day Walthers will ..One can only hope.

Your videos are truly amazing! I watched a few and then questioned myself as to how haven’t I subbed to you sooner.
Yet another fine, first-class realistic LIRR video! Love it! Have you ever considered filming the LIRR from KO to GY on the main line? I used to ride this over 50 years ago; I remember the little brick station at KO, and the train stopping at Peconic (NC). Keep up the great work, you are preserving the ROW for future generations.
I was on this line years ago on an MP-54. I recall the old drawbridge was an A frame affair and was single track as well as the present bridge. I was also on an ERA fan trip using brand new M-1's and got photos of the old drawbridge during a photo run by.
I live in Long Beach New York! LBNY PROUD
Congrats on getting this footage. I heard the M9s are gonna be in service I think by the end of this month. I wonder if I got a good chance of getting an M3 to Long Beach from Jamaica during rush hour. I was told by a conductor filming is now prohibited cause of security reasons today when I wanted too. I want to verify from ones that let me before, cause I think I'm being lied to.
Sounds like that conductor just does not like railfans. You run in to them every so often. Or maybe that conductor just likes to play hero.
One complaint.... never been out there, at least when you go through the stations, tell me where l am so l can follow along....
The stations have signs on them that you can see on the right.
@@REXXSEVEN I could see some of them well enough to read when I had a map beside me, but it wasn't easy - and some of them I couldn't read at all.
Cool! I find it odd that there aren't any derailers or trap points protecting the access to lifting bridges on LIRR's lines or the NYC subway lines...
Awesome video.
Awesome
I hope you got some Gino's Pizza or some middle eastern food at Abe's across the street when you were in my hometown
Bravo MrMaster!! Great video...thank you. from Milan,Italy
Don't flood my comments lol but thanks!
So most of the positional signals are dark except for one with as "approach slow" aspect. Is the LIRR doing away with PRR style signals?. Weren't those signals needed? Some of the signal gantries have no signals at all.
that wind noise... oh my god, I feel so bad for everyone on this train
Anyone know why it appears to be two 3rd Rails over the span?
I'm guessing, it might be heater to avoid icing of third rail during freezing rain and snowstorms maybe?
The train moves so slowly out of long beach. Gotta think that's a problem for rush hour folks..
There were plans in the 1970s and 80s to have the subway take over the LIRR from Jamaica (specifically around South Road, where the Queens High School for Sciences is) to Laurelton or Springfield Blvd. It would have been interesting to ride the E train and look out an R32/42 RFW.
Be careful what you wish for. NYC took over the LIRR to Rockaway Beach and Far Rockaway. Service has been terrible from day one and hasn't markedly improved.
@Ali Muhammad What do you want for $2.75? Best deal anywhere.
Ali Muhammad Even at $4.00 is a steal.
@Ali Muhammad The worst in what way? Time it takes to get to Manhattan it's Almost a 15 Mile ride what more can they do. You can always try Uber.
@Ali Muhammad 1. I also PAY $127 a month for 6 station trip to Manhattan. Somehow your traveling 3x times the distance for the same subsidized price again a great deal. Yes, the (A) to Lefferts might come more often during rush due to the quick turn around to cover Fulton and 8th ave segments of the line. The Far Rockway segment is a 10 Mile branch off to put that in perspective that's roughly the length of the (7) or the (L) lines by there itself. It's quite an offset as far as coverage on the Manhattan trunk. Plus at Rush you 4-5 trains that cover the Rockway Park segment. The South Channel Bridge is run by the coast guard while they do have a agreement during rush hours it's out of the MTA's hands for the most part. LIRR have the guidelines off the Long Beach line.. Okay Second the AD displays are covered by ad companies and not the MTA plus they make money in ad rev. 3. The new R211's will have cameras. 4. There working on CBTC and UWB so new signaling. 5. MTA police are covering more stations as of this month. Are we missing any other points on your end? Maybe try the LIRR from Far Rockway whats the monthly on that?
Wasn't that channel bridge over those swift flowing waters on wooden pilings (!) in the 1970's? Have not ridden that branch in decades so is the bridge at 2:22 now sitting on something more secure? Like steel or a high grade of reinforced concrete?
Does anyone know that you the m9’s are on the Long Beach branch now?
Nice!
awesome
This is really nice.
Nice vid. Now show me an inside video of an M1 and I'll give you a medal
Was watching it with my little boy who loves trains nice video but we stopped watching bc horn was so annoying
"Are you behaving yaself?"
Great video
Thanks!
Why is there 2 3rd rails
How do you go about getting a window seat on the trains?
The M3's have a window at the back and front of the Train that is publicly accessible.
What happen with the people that their cars stop out the platform??
Simple. They just have to walk forward to exit.
I'm guessing at where this is. I know of a Long Beach, Ca. and I know of Jamaica. But it seems like maybe those places are also in New York state, maybe?
Long Beach on Long Island
Nice relaxing one question..what is the bell I hear periodically ring ?
The bells mean the speed code is changing.
Thank you for responding I sort of thought so but wasn't sure
The short burst of the bell is the alerter, the long bell is the cab signal indicator changing to a more restrictive aspect.
@@dantx4545
I thought that it was the train operator's (driver) mudda calling from Jersey 😁🤣🤣🤣...
Why do they have to blow the air two long, one shprt, then one long?
Federal law requires all trains blow rule 14L at all crossing grades. Two longs,One Short and One long. Hope that helps
Correctly, do we think of this 4-track main as 2 separate Branches?
Yes. Its Atlantic 1 & 2 and Babylon 1& 2
Ugh!!! What's up with that annoying whistling noise??? Sounds like someone left a window open or something!
WHy so slow over that first bridge???
Yard speed is restricted speed not exceeding 5mph. Rules have the engineer complete one train lenght after the end of yard restriction before accelerating to the branch speed.
@ 10:00 did the operator over shoot his stop purposely?
@Ali Muhammad thanks for the info I'm from Chicago so our trains run 8 cars at the most but all our platforms are 8 car length. I just bought the train sim game and I love using these very cars on the video cause they remind me so much of our cars here in Chicago 😊😊👍🏽👍🏽.
That's the problem with trying to live in a nice quiet house right next to an active rail line with frequent at-grade intersection crossings... up to 24 hours a day of TOOT TOOT TOOT clatter clatter clatter TOOT TOOT TOOT. That's gotta be hell on one's property values.
I live about half a mile North of the tracks.
Carl Howard then don’t live there. Trains toot
@@back2the80s I DON'T live there, weirdo!
Carl Howard ok boomer
@@back2the80s Wow. You're a true nut job. Congratulations. Your parents must be so proud.
So which branches stop at VS?
Long Beach and Montauk I think
@@shaunperionne4100 Rockaway branch & Long Beach
Long Beach Far rockaway west Hempstead and some Babylon trains
Is that a derailing mechanism at 3:31?
No.
@@MrMaster767 What is the purpose of this track set up then?
@@robertbowman3406 the second pair of tracks in the center is there to keep the train from derailing and falling of the side. The speed over this bridge is 5 mph for safety reasons
You must love honking your horn!
Not a qualified operating employee.
It's painful to watch how slow the trains pull out of Long Beach. What is that, 10 mph? That has bad American railroad practices written all over it.
better then most cities in the us, new york probably has the best regional rail in the us, but there are many problems such as the bridge.
