  • Enjoy this ride on the scoot along the Montauk Branch from Speonk area to Babylon. Window was a bit dirty from bird invasions but looks good straight down the rail. You get a good idea of what this section of the Montauk Branch is like. We pass numerous trains enroute. I did not narrate so as to not distract the engineer.

    Thanks for doing this. The double tracked non-electrified tracks is my favorite LIRR section, and this is the first time I've ever seen any cab ride/cab car RFW views of it going westbound. Very interesting.

    Great video as always. I've also viewed your Oyster Bay to Jamaica video as well as many others of the LIRR. . Hoping your next video will be Port Jefferson to Huntington, or Hicksville or Jamaica. Thanks.

    Thanks much for doing a cab view of this part of the Montauk branch! I especially enjoyed the coverage of passing through Center Moriches, and the other locations along the route. Glad the Speonk depot is still there, and used as a restaurant. Not many block signals east of Patchoque, but the position light signals in the double track section are really neat. I've enjoyed all your videos! - Verne Brummel, Madison,WI

    Is this a newly scheduled service? Btw it would be awesome if you did a video on the montauk beach mini weekend cannonball that originates at Southampton at 3:25.

    Do you think they could electrify to Sayville? Or do you think the Siemens Charger’s acceleration would moot that? This seemed like quite the pokey ride.

    "bird invasions"? That's an odd description of bird excrement. Do tell, just how did those birds invade the glass? Quite impossible really! 🤣🤣🤣

      @3985uprr  Рік тому +2

      It is a more dignified way of describing interactions with birds, either physically or anally. I have no physical evidence as to whether or not birds either crashed into the train or deficated on it.

      OR, in the finest showbiz tradition, we can call them “aviary malfunctions.”
