- To the best of my abilities, I identified most if not all interlocking’s, although the narrative on some of my interlocking calls may be incorrect, the captions listed to the best of my knowledge are correct. I am relying on a couple of sources for this information, and these sources have been extremely helpful.
Thanks for the great videos! Your narration is most helpful in understanding railroad technologies ☺️
I just wanted to say how much I really enjoy your video and your narration I agree with you the Northeast quarter have some of the finest High-Speed Rail in the country and that's something I'm proud to be an American that we have that sure you could go to Japan or France an experience 200 mph but at that speed you would get a headache just looking out the window trying to keep up thank you for the wonderful videos and your narration
Awesome, thank you!
That flat wheel got my attention!!! Great video!!
I love the female voice on the train ❤
Great video always love cab views but at the end you forgot about the Highline that CSX uses the bypass 30th station.
Can’t think of everything. I’ve mentioned it in other videos
At 1:15, you can see where they laid the new track after the derailment that happened right out of the station a few months ago. It looks like they left parts of the old rails in there and changed the curve of the track a little bit to make the new ROW.
Great way to view this part of the corridor - really enjoyed this trip!
love you videos. your commentary is great.
I was up that way yesterday at the Amish market in Bristol! Had I known you would be on a train, I would of stopped at Croydon in uniform
Uniform??

I am a state park ranger in that area of Bucks County
The abandoned Cross Brothers Slaughterhouse on the left at 34:43. PRR, PC, and Conrail use to serve that place. Cattle cars with fresh cattle going in one way, reefer cars loaded with fresh beef on the other.
Thank you!
Nice, Tim, though they could wash the windows every now and then.
Yes. It didn’t look that bad but that was dirtier than others I’ve been on recently
10:07 is the interchange with ESPN. I work that branch
I'm familiar with this line. I use it when I go to/from Trenton in conjunction with going to New York. The senior citizen fare is only $23.50 round trip.
Thanks Tim😀💚
Cool vids. Love them use to ride Trenton and fox chase when I was working in center city. Always curious, how does engineer know where to stop at each station
They have markers and visual spots based on number of cars
80 miles an hour & 1 flat spot on the wheel sure does make a lot of noise.
Am i trippen what happened to your dc metro and vre video
Freeing up storage. There are other videos of same.
I noticed when the Silver Star bypassed you, you said, "Silver Star" I'm shocked you didn't say "Stupid Star" like last time. XD
Well, since the silver meteor is back, I showed it some mercy.
The milepost of 66 from Jersey City ? That’s measuring total miles from Jersey City to that part of PA ?
Yes.
That track from 40:20 to 41:00 - what did Amtrak do here? Looks almost like some kind of secondary track.
Do you think you'll ever do an RFW video of the Hudson Line to Poughkeepsie?
They run with locomotives to Poughkeepsie. Not sure about cab car
@@3985uprr Thanks!
@Retired Railfan Horn Guy you probably could try the cab car, i think that would be pretty cool.!
was on my way to philly from levittown boring town got hit by a car then went back home to get my arm bandaged 😡
Sounds like a flat wheel on that SL V
Most of the SL5 cars do have flat spots on their wheels.
@@OldsVistaCruiser Flat wheels to make that clickety-clack on the railroad track😎
