- On December 22, 2019, my friend James and I decided to attempt a shot at chasing NY&AR job RS-90 as it made its Sunday morning run out of Fresh Pond down the Bushwick and Lower Montauk Branches through the neighborhoods of Queens, NY. This day's power for the RS-90 was a nice trio of engines, featuring SW1001 101 and GMTX GP38-2s 2127 and 2200. The 101, built for the Long Island Railroad, is the only active SW1001 on the roster.
RS-90 is seen as they creep out from under the Maspeth Industrial Center in its namesake Queens neighborhood as they cross Flushing Avenue and 56th Street as they make their way down the Bushwick Branch. They can be seen crossing Metropolitan Avenue and Woodward Avenue in Ridgewood before coupling up to a cut of USWX Trash Loads from the WM Bushkill Facility, which they pull back to Fresh Pond, but not before some wheel slip as the engineer brings the train up the steep grade across Flushing Avenue.
A short time later after bringing their loads back to Fresh Pond, RS-90 heads down the Lower Montauk Branch to pick up trash loads from Blissville Yard in Long Island City. RS-90 returns back up the branch, seen passing under the new Koscuiuszko Bridge and crossing Maspeth Avenue with nine more trash loads..
Thanks for watching!
Goodmorning and now that's why I call a excellent video. It's a good to see that New York City still has Fright Trains in the City !!!!
Very cool shortline and great leader power
Very nicely shot. I love seeing Short Lines anywhere, but in a cool place like N.Y.C. and in some tight spaces, it's even better.
Used to live a block away from that crossing all night long trains came by
Used to live a block away from the flushing av crossing in Maspeth trains usually started about 8 pm on weekdays and ran Saturdays and sometimes sundays
I love seeing GP-38's working hard and trucks off the road, P.S. good camera job.
Awesome video!!! I always like watching train switching in the city. Thanks for posting
Liking that power DD.
Those trash loads look very familiar 😜.
Awesome video Brudda
Cool!!
Love the paint scheme es on Atlantic freight
They have a calf and cow running around during the week that I think is leased
fantastic footage!!!! How many lease engines does the NYAR have?
What happened to their Gp 38 -2 locomotives
A truck at 12:16 just passed right through the crossing area when the barriers are going down. Should he get fined and in trouble for that?
What time does this pass? I’ve tried so hard to see it at around 10 am
In 2019, they left Fresh Pond by 9 am, can’t vouch for it now, I haven’t tried since.
@@trainutjob I got word that they run over here around 7-8 AM, I’ll go looking for it tomorrow
The go into Brookhaven Rail Terminal
