Love seeing miniature railways, unfortunately I’ve only seen them in Thomas and on KZbin. Ironically it’s kinda hard to take the MBTA for tourist or amusement trains, can’t go to Edaville and I’m too big for the amusement park, but they are realizing people will go for just the train though. Can’t go to the cape on a regular basis for the cape cod railroad, nor canobie, wish the T would fix that part of itself.

Ah, I remember this day all too well. Easily among the my personal favorites for transit-related stuff (i'd say moreso than the GLX, personally!) wait, YO THAT'S ME AT 4:52 (plaid jacket with hood up)

Hey! Kind of an odd question but do you by chance know what was moved on the Northbound Readville Switcher move today? Can't find a reliable source anywhere else.

nice video!!!

Winchester Center reopens Sept 30th! (though i'm sure you are already aware due to your job title haha). Are you going for the grand opening? I'll likely be there all day (spare school hours)

are you an engineer?

amtrak video when???

I find it odd how they run on a "Main" and "Passing" track style instead of an Inbound and Outbound track. That means at places like Halifax, inbound trains will always arrive on the outbound (main) track unless there is already an outbound train there!

Knew I saw someone with a camera there recently. Was going to open my door and say hi but I didn’t have time

30+ bays? Wonder if that's a record, especially if all are used and none are spares.

I heard 1075 had mechanical issues so 1056 is 'doubleheading' that set. Two locos on one consist!

Love it! perfect trip-Royce-;)

Quincy center, I recognize that smoke detector ( I think that's what it is) anywhere. I don't think any other station has that, but I'm not sure

Love the public water bottle refill stations, the Brockton area transit center just got one, wood love to see more. Back Bay has a bubler in the waiting area, I don't think South station or North station have anything, so they'd be perfect for a bottle refill station.

How has the ridership been?

my station

I love how the elevator buttons have a full description of what's on each floor, something Los Angeles' Union Station needs. RIP the temporary platform haha!

Newest F40PH-3C rebuild! 1067 is to be delivered up next, it's currently undergoing testing in erie PA (i think i got the location correct. Wherever they are rebuilding them.)

I was actually thinking about coming here today lol

Great video, and good to see the two cafe cars !

Doesn't Amtrak use different styles of bridge plates too? The big blue things I've seen at Back Bay, maybe I'm imagining things.

I saw part of the title and honestly thought we were still getting British trains content.

Let’s go new video. Nice video of 1124

Okay now strawberry I get, but iron brew???? Is it alcohol, or something?

To anyone who made fun of Needham, I give you Wemyss Bay. No offense

1052 is a side hopper. THe other week it was south, and a month or two before it was north.

Have you got a date for the Bute vid

I always forget that the Worcester side has low platforms, I'm usually just do the Providence/ Stoughton side, when I go there.

I noticed both 1138 and 1137 were put on south side sets, which is unusual for the GP40MCs (other than on the capeflyer). Did the south side have a shortage of locomotives?

My hometown lived on south elm street before I moved away 10 years ago. When I visit, I still take the communal rail. Use to be a skateland where the condominium is being built now from the station

I'm just curious, now that you've ridden both recently, how is British railways disability access compared to MBTA? I see a big gap between that TemsLink train and the platform. Would like to visit Brittan, but that's very very very very unlikely. I'm visually impaired and MBTA is questionable depending on the service, because it's not exactly consistent, not that it matters to me because I know most of the subway, and Commuter rail by heart, bus not so much.

оХ да, сичко оценяваме в парса а?а човешките усилия и ено друо.

Very nice and informative video, I enjoyed it. I did the same walk from Bradford to Haverhill last year without the closure and exploring the Merrimack Valley was pretty fun! I'd recommend checking out the cafe by Bradford station, they have good food and some cool train memorabilia as well.

Should've mentioned 1811 Veterans wrap right behind you at the start! Lol

Maybe they thought the 4:15ers might be too groggy to navigate the change. Haha. So nice to see all the new infrastructure investments being made all over the system. Can't wait till it gets here.

Wen is the bute vid

I wonder if you might consider giving a tour of South and North stations- a tutorial for greenhorns like myself that walks a rider from the Commuter rail platforms to the subways in the most direct way. Is there an inside subway entrance at South station? I always end up outside which seems rather silly. I think I've ridden the Commuter rail a grand total of 5 times being that the nearest station- Lakeville, is 22 miles away. We were promised commuter rail would arrive Fall of 23, then we were told Summer of 24, and now we are told Summer of 25. Like getting out of Casablanca- we wait- and wait- and wait....and wait. Meanwhile it would be nice to know how to get to where I'm going when I get there.

You are a very smart guy and you tell an interesting, fact filled and impromptu story each and every time. You remind me very much of the late great Rex Garrod- the brainy inventive "Watson" (Bell's Watson that is) to Tim Hunkin in the BBC series "Secret Life of Machines" that PBS use to run. Thanks, love your channel.

Hastings was a stop that primarily served the employees (as well as the shipping needs) of the Hook & Hastings Organ Company from the 1880s when the company moved from Roxbury until the 1930s when it closed.

Hah let me guess. Did you get a #900 series bilevel car? Those things have horrible windows...
