PHOTOS metro north with a little bit of amtrak and nyc subway |
|

Posted by R33/R36 mainline on Fri Jun 20 18:51:43 2008 Today i went to stamford to railfan and take some pics. On a side note the M2s have railfan windows!!!!! I rode at the RFW from stamford to GCT. I didn't know metro north had RFW it was very cool. Also how come there are so few amtrak trains? When i go to new jersey they come like every 15 mintues. In CT theres barly one amtrak train an hour. Well here are the pics starting with the nyc subway.....    And now to the metro north and amtrak.....                  And heres a few pics from inside the TM store in GCT...     That is all comments are welcome enjoy!! |

Ganging up on you! Great shots! There aren't as many people up this way so we don't have as many trains as places like NJ. your pal, Fred |

Plus all the long distance stuff starts at NYP. Still Stamford is pretty cool for railfanning. I take it nobody bothered you?your pal, Fred |

Metro-North still runs a few M1s (okay, M1As) during rush hours, not to mention plenty of M3s. This photo was taken last Monday. |

These are kewl! I like the 4 train pics (Old homeline and all), the 6 trains at Stamford (comin' to jump you s0n! LOL) was my favorite, and the train going over the switches, and the last 4 (Mainly the Diesel in snow). |

I think everyone knows that the shots of 2016 and 2013 are not mine. I said that i took them inside the TM store in GCT.They had the pics on display so i took pics of the pics on display. |
