Absolutely Beautiful!! from a Native New Yorker.
I rode the Port Washington branch back in the early 70's, as a kid, from Main Street Flushing to Port Washington to look at minibikes at the the long gone "Ghost Motorcycle" dealer in Port Washington. When traveling the line I was glued to the front window out and back and loved every minute. In watching this video of the train pulling into the Main Street Flushing Station it brought a tear to my eye. Your video brought back tremendous memories of growing up in Queens over 50 years ago. Thank you so much for memories and keep up the great work!!
That takes me back. Haven’t heard the word mini bikes in a bit. 😆
Nice smooth ride, the cutest part was the little girl at 1308-09 weaving as the train went by!! Reminded me of my childhood and waving to the trains!
Judging by the sound of the train, from which you can clearly hear that there is a flat spot (or 'wheel flat', if you don't know what is it, read it on Wikipedia) on the wheel of the car, I am not surprised by the recent train accidents in the United States. This is not the norm in European countries.
Thank you once again my friend for bringing us this and your other great rides you give us!
My pleasure!
That flat spot 😮
can't wait to see some night videos while the train is driving, manhattan skyline is soooo nice to see from distance
Love all the M3 rfw vids you're doing. Keep it up!
Thanks. Put a lot of time and effort into making them.
I travel from zone 1 to zone 3 for years so when I recently found out about the single rail line near the end, that just blew my mind.
Thank You!
You're welcome!
Very nice I loved this
Thank you!
Nice video! I've seen a few going out to Port Washington. This is the first I've seen in the other direction. That clickety clack was probably a flat wheel and not a steam engine chug!!
Great video. If you are ever in MD, and have time to spare, it’d great to see a cab view of the Brunswick MARC line. I am not sure the Bi Levels let you get this close to the window though, and its a long trip back and forth. But if it ever happened, I’d be very appreciative.
8:48 A honk on Port Wash! We all know that hasn’t happened since 2010 😂
Port Washington - land of tge self guarded frog. Look to the right when crosing the bridge after Manhasset - I did the controls for the sewer plant there. 💩
Two random thoughts -
- Now to see how much "country" there is, that close to NYC
- And even a "lesser" branch like this has continuous welded rail, concrete ties. Wish Boston could do that well
31:30 - 32:40 my favorite part of the vid because of the fact I used to live around that particular area of Elmhurst. My elementary school (PS7) is on the left.
Later during my middle school years I’d walk the sidewalk that was parallel to the tracks to and from school. Good times.
Yup!
Was there an abandoned station @ 31:37?
This is the day it was headed by 9830-9829 going eastbound (supposedly)..... I was at Babylon last week when the 3:03pm train from Penn due Babylon at 4:15 was a 12 car M3 supposedly headed by 9818-9817 but it was really headed by 9940- 9939 with cars 9818-9817 being cars 9 and 10 of the 12 car M3
Happy new year Craig sorry I’m late lol
Same to you!
37:40 Grand Central portal on the left
It sounds like a steam locomotive
Rural New York is lovely, isnt it? x
It is.
Was this M3 set one of the ones put back into service as a result of the GCT fiasco? Needed wheel maintenance first.
No catenary in 2023?!
It’s third rail
What is that flashing signal at 25:40?
Absolutely awesome video question now what does the bells mean inside the train that I keep hearing to me it sounds like an old style telephone but they must have some meaning just curious thank you for the info and keep the awesome videos coming
Communication between lead conductor and engineer.
Can you get promission to video from GCM to Port Washington? I would love to see that.
Long platforms ...
Flat spots are annoying ☺️
So the top lining of the station signs is black and not blue like the old days?
Bad wheel.
Why would the original builders of Penn Station add that curvy part on track 18? 44:11 just doesn’t make sense
Is there any way you can add time stamps to know when you enter all the different stations and interlockings? (Including Harold)
I like it the way it is right now.
Square wheels on this end of the M3?
Afraid so.
How can you stand yhe sound of that flat spot on the wheel?
No wonder it sounded like a steam engine
Thank you for your well made films. Being a retired UK Railwayman, I noticed the US signalling to be very different from our native system, speed based perhaps, and I wonder if you know of any on-line sources to assist my further understanding. To the best of my knowledge, there was only one comparable instalation here, at Mirfield, Yorkshire, brought into use during 1932 by the London Midland & Scottish Railway but simplified in 1959 and finally replaced in 1970 by standard equipment conforming to established Britsh practice. Kind regards from Barnetby, UK.
0:48 What's the number 40 mean?
Track 17 looks inoperable especially during rush hour
Yea.
Shame the whole line can't be double tracked.
You'd have to replace the Viaduct. Too much work. Extending the pocket track in Great Neck is more then enough. They want to expand Port Wash Yard, but the neighbors refuse lol
@@MrMaster767 I understand not double tracking the viaduct, I'm happy that it's still in good shape being how old it is. But could they double track after the viaduct out to Port Washington?
