Autumn Boston Area Railfanning Day 3 of 3. 10/25/24

[@ishkabiddle8930]

Very nice 3-part series. Looks like the weather cooperated.😀

[@3985uprr]

I forgot what rain looks like

[@rodhard688]

Amtrak trains looking so grungy. The MBTA Trains look so much better.

[@nathanielcoleman5694]

They’re replacing them all in the coming years with new Siemens Venture cars and Alstom Avelia Liberty trains

[@nathanielcoleman5694]

24:08 I don’t think I’ve ever seen a NER that long! That must be a rarity because 10-car trains aren’t very common either

[@TLT_Productions]

you saw the cranberry! good for you dude!

[@richmartin1427]

Tim I always love when you railfan Boston. I grew up there but live in Texas now so watching you fan Boston makes me feel like I am at home. The F40s and the GPs sadly only pull at 3000 HP. The HSP46s are over 4000 HP. Not the most aesthetically pleasing locomotives but they do the job well it seems. Given the air quality at Back Bay, I once wish the T would have bought some ALP-46s to run off the catenary in that area, but after your video in Montreal I am reconsidering that position.

[@3985uprr]

In Montreal‘s case, there is no wire for them to run under.

[@chaddallesandro2057]

another GREAT video!!!!

[@blackking7512]

Can u believe that soon it's gonna be Airo trains and Avelias in Boston. That is if Amtrak ever runs the Avelias.

20:52 Moe!! I love that guy! Met with that guy a good few times!

[@DouglasEllis-y3q]

You caught the Readville switcher (1116) in the yard! 😅

[@MbtaVideoClips]

32:00 there’s a reason i absolutely LOVE 1069

[@MBTA.1035]

Great catches

[@NicholasFlorenzano]

That was me on 2159

[@3985uprr]

Are you an engineer or a conductor on that train?

[@NicholasFlorenzano]

@ Engineer

[@johnrobinson5205]

The gp40 looks like a freight train

[@mbrproductions160]

Well, the GP40 is a freight locomotive after all

[@slim.reacts]

They are ex-CN GP402LW

[@randyarmstrong5502]

F40S yes

[@hamlinfan69]

[@3985uprr]

Smoothing it out as it can get worn.

[@OnTheRailsNYC]

[@mr.conductorfromsts4204]

He asked one of the MBTA employees to film. And they said “Yes.”
