  • I rode in the Quiet Car on this train so I could not narrate. The video is loaded with infographics that will tell you things about the ride that you never thought possible. You will get info in stations, interlockings, most passing trains, and bodies of water that I can’t pronounce. We really roll on the New Haven to Boston portion with a couple of 150mph zones. Enjoy this great ride on a gorgeous day. (At 1:38:17 that is #125 from Springfield, Ma. to Newport News, Va.)

    • @3985uprr
      @3985uprr  10 місяців тому +2

      Yankee, a native or citizen of the United States or, more narrowly, of the New England states of the United States (Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut). The term Yankee is often associated with such characteristics as shrewdness, thrift, ingenuity, and conservatism. (From an article. Not my words)

    At 4:25 you display "F". What does that mean? Recently I took many trains in the UK and one in the Netherlands. All had door steps close to the platform. I'm glad that Acela also has this. On my return to the US I took a Northeast Regional train to Ashland VA where I live. Those steps are really difficult to get luggage on the carriage.
