  • All aboard! This week, we're back on the East Coast of the USA to take a look at some Metro North commuter trains as they run up and down the Hudson River! We'll visit several scenic locations along this beautiful rail line. Train equipment is a mix of electrically powered self propelled cars, called electrical multiple units (EMU for short) and locomotive hauled trains, pulled by P32ACDM locomotives. These locomotives can either pick up electrical power from the electrified third rail or they can run off the onboard diesel motor. Sit back, relax, and enjoy Metro North trains on the Hudson!

    Excellent (as always) footage. Watching this video really hit home with me. I was an engineer with Metro North for 22 years and I used to love running trains on the Hudson line, especially between Harmon and Poughkeepsie.

      Thank you very much, John. It is a very beautiful line. You didn't happen to get any of the FL9s, did you?

    • @66kprdwd

      Yes, quite a few times. I ran them on the Hudson line and the Danbury and Waterbury branches. I loved running them much more than the newer Genesis engines.

    Although I wasn't alive at the time, I really love seeing old footage of the Hudson Line, back when FL9s ran practically all the trains on the Metro North and Amtrak. I was born about a couple of years after Amtrak retired their fleet, but just imagine how cool it would be to see them in the modern day...

    • @CoasterFan2105

      Well, you may be seeing some of them used as cab cars this summer on some Amtrak trains.

      New Milford RAIL FAN Wow. As painful as that is to hear, it's unfortunately the better direction for Amtrak to go in. Trying to renovate the old FL9s into NPCUs would have been relatively costly for them at the end of the day. It sucks though because I found out my family's going to New York City in a couple of weeks and I was gonna try to find a way to get some footage of them on the Hudson line...

I thought after it derailed 4 years ago in 2013 and was sent to GE in Erie Pennsylvania for rebuild and repair they would have replaced all the damaged sections leaving not even a clue it had derailed before or maybe they simply just hammered the dents to be flat again with repaint. Funny!
