    River road is a great walk that runs parallel with the tracks.

    Awesome production as always, nice to see the reverse version of my trip, great light on the southbound though.

      Southbound in the light now is always great. With the sun behind you it makes for some awesome footage. Thanks for watching!!!

    I'm glad the union station is restored. I wish those old cabooses were still there.

      Yeah so do I. I also wish the siding was still in place along with the diamond

    Wish you had more customers because you do a good job. Hope the rails will be fixed. Any chance of getting a few customers in Danbury?

    Great video. I love the former NHRR Berkshire sub. It must have a joy to ride the rails to the Berkshires back in the day. Question: why the leased Geeps? What happened to the Housatonic’s GP35s? Broken down and out of service?

    • @WeatheredRails
      @WeatheredRails  Рік тому +1

      Thank you! The GP35’s are OOS plus GMTX 2627 and 2346, 2627 should be getting a new traction motor, and 2346 lease is up so it’s sitting stored on one of the shop tracks

    Amazing video! Does the Housatonic still operate the gp-35’s or did the GMTX locomotives take over? It would be amazing if you could do another video about the Housatonic’s north end (the line to Pittsfield).

    • @WeatheredRails
      @WeatheredRails  Рік тому

      All of the GP35’s are currently OOS. However one is at the G&U getting rebuilt. I’ll eventually get to another video on the North End

    that is 107 lb rail put down over 100 years ago?

    • @WeatheredRails
      @WeatheredRails  Рік тому

      No,that was put down somewhere around 10 years ago. CWR didn’t start being laid until the 1960’s. And I know the New Haven didn’t have the money or equipment to lay CWR. That rail i believe is 132 Ibs. Heavier than stick rail
