It's a nice ride. Try it

Now its like the 735 pm train from Grand Central to Croton Harmon

This is AWESOME! For a detailed question that's been on my mind is I have a good idea of where both ends of the former South Reading branch diverge off the MBTA mainlines (Salem station and Wakefield Junction), but where's the connecting junctions for the abandoned Newburyport "Branch" itself (where Guilford pulled freight until about 2001)? Did one end of the former Newburyport Branch diverge off near Wakefield Junction too? I'm really trying to find their " former shadows" to study.

ik im commenting this nearly 7-8 years in the future, but so people know: According to schedules from 2016, this was likely Metro North Train 783. An off peak Hudson Line night express departing Grand Central at 8:33 PM, Stopping at Marble Hill, Yonkers, Hastings-On-Hudson, followed by all stops to Croton Harmon, terminating at 9:33 PM, with a 1 Hour Trip Time. this train still runs in the schedule, as of January 30th, 2024, but has an adjusted schedule

Ahhhh the good ol days....Remember these trains being ice cold in the summertime.

UNBELIEVABLE SOUND! 36:01 - 36:07 When it switches tracks at Forest Hills!

Btw the bus is powered by the trolley pull and makes it an articulated bus

For such a short line route, the Blue Line subway trains puts fellow rapid transit Red and Orange Line subway routes to shame because of speed: pretty cool especially between Aquarium through Maverick to [coming out of the tunnel for] Airport .

Great video! I miss doing this trip to Tarrytown!

Your video is super helpful! I am also grateful for the location descriptions and key moments added. My son will be riding the train, for the first time, from Maine to New York (school to home) and this was perfect. Thank you!!

Enjoyed the ride!

😂Wassaic Shuttle makes me recall why I miss upstate New York so much.

BNYWTrains, it’s actually an R142A Subway Car.

It may have changed !

1621 is the car number for this

It's an R68A B train

So many summer weekend memories while living young in Boston's North End and taking this train to north shore beaches😊

Washington Epic C

nice trip but you can shoot the other parts of inside train cars in beginning a bit more. i loved the video

wonderful ride. thank you for sharing with us.

I do a Boston trip once or twice a year. I go on Amtrak because it’s cheap and convenient. I can get work done, and also take a nap. I ride on the train to go to my eye appointments in Portland. $3 one way from Brunswick to Portland is awesome. Going to Boston is cheap too, however if you ride in business class, it’s $80 round trip.

E train ride

Beautiful Dutchess County

Back in the early 70s, we had a summer home in Copake NY, back then it known as the Harlem Division, I remember the train station was Copake Falls not far from Wassic

Great memory

Guess what station/stations I like to see on the blue line map

These computer announcements will never replace Bob Brigham….best announcer ever at South Station.

I actually live in Chappaqua

Bronxville looks like a beautiful city. Love to check it out someday.

The e bell is trying to interpreted 0:42

Great train video

I know these days at South Station Boston, they use two different computer generated voices that are both on apple computers. They’d use the Ava voice for MBTA Commuter Rail and the Samantha voice for Amtrak.

Anyone know what’s the luggage allowance ? They allow checked baggage? 50 lbs bags ….

I'm so confused why there was an Amtrak train at Harlem... Anyone know how that's even possible?

The ride was much more exciting on a Type 5.

Hjk

excellent vid!! I've watched the Downeaster travel past my house for many years, finally got to see the view from the train, between Magoun & Gilman. Thanks!!

When you passed Wakefield, that's where the 2 train ends, not the 4. The 4 ends at Woodlawn

Exactly what I was looking for to decide about riding Amtrak north.
