3:29 Metro-North is currently leasing GP40-3Hs 6698 and 6699 because of being power short from sending a few BL20GHs out for rebuilds. 6698 and 6699 also had to receive a few modifications out at Croton-Harmon for Metro-North to use them and if you spot a CT rail BL20 (125-130) Metro-North is using those since CDOT pretty much just handed them over to Metro-North just like they did with P32s 228, 229, 230, and 231
Great video as always! You're right, though. Those Waterbury Branch stations could definitely use an upgrade. I also love how you referenced the Steamed Hams meme from The Simpsons when you got to Seymour! Anyway, keep up the good work!
I like your sharp humour in Beacon Falls 🤣 Although I usually like your music selection as well, this time I'd probably had preferred a screaming EMD 2-stroke diesel.
I definitely think it's very important to stop the spread of Lantern Flies! 😅 That Beacon Falls town, are there actually some water falls around there that denote them naming the town that?
those are the infamous "constitution liners," depowered budd SPV2000 DMUs! they ran in service until the mid 2000s iirc its the same carbody as the amfleet but whenever they put motive power on those trains (both the metroliner and SPV2000) it never works well, so they just depowered some SPV2000s and ran them as coaches (amtrak also has depowered metroliners as cab cars!)
why exactly should i not ride the train alone…? just curious lol also, yes i do have a stutter, and i know that it sometimes makes it hard to understand me, but i don’t let that stop me from making videos!
@@honajtransit I didn't notice a stutter. It certainly could be me, I'm old and perhaps my ears can't pick up the tone of your voice. I apologize if I'm wrong but you don't look old enough to take train rides by yourself.
oh, that’s fair, I do talk fast sometimes, which doesn’t help with understanding me! As for my age, though, I know I look younger than I am, but I’m 16! I’ve been doing solo transit adventures for more than two years, and I’ve commuted on the subway to school alone for the past four years. Thanks for your concern though, I know I look young!
Another fun Honaj Transit video--keep 'em coming.

Thanks Honaj! I watch these every week. Nice.
The responsible gambling tips at the station was wild
beacon falls is just prime casino real estate and ned lamont needs you to know that!
Tree. Tree. Tree. Tree. Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree.Tree. Tree. Yes, very scenic indeed
ok but have you considered:

according to google maps there is actually a waterfall north of the town, but its called the spruce brook falls, not beacon falls, so im not sure!
What were those weird round carriages oyu showed in the history? They looked as if they had been bought off the London tube. 😂

This looks like the rust belt
That’s bc it is
Yay i got the first like in! 😅
Sorry dude I'm having too difficult of a time trying to understand you. I hope there was an adult with you. You shouldn't be riding the train alone.
