@@MrSeebsy NYCTA's R32s were from the '60s and they were just pulled from service earlier this year. Officially they are still not retired, just in dead storage just in case the newer cars break down.

[@basictransportenthusiast4386]

8:20 I’ve always loved how small the cardinal consist is.

[@jimmymakmta]

Love the NE Corridor full of train action

[@NYLifeInNJ]

Wow I haven't seen so many Arrow IIIs on the NEC in a long time, curious as to where all the MLV consists went.

[@q21a27]

I was also shocked to see so many Arrow IIIs running.

[@LeitoTrenes]

Nice video. Likes 👏😉👍

[@calm8685]

I was onboard the Keystone train at 16:54

[@21xd09]

Nice catches as always! Looks like the 10 car bi-level trains are back after some time including the 12 and 11 car Arrow set consist. Things are looking back to normal over there it seems!

[@lennysvideoz]

there are no 11 car sets arrows. arrows come in even consists. 2,4,6,8,10,12. 11 would leave the 10th F Car hangin'

[@Jesus_Is_Lord7]

@@lennysvideoz there are single car arrows

[@q21a27]

@@lennysvideoz You need to watch the video again. There were two 11 car Arrow III trainsets that appeared. Like you, I thought they only operated even number of cars but I looked at it twice and it was 11 cars.

[@ChrisBcards]

The big levels been around for many a year now at least on east corridor. They still use old ones as well.

Nice video!

[@evanyasser4412]

I’ve kind of made Metropark my designated NY boarding station. As in, I only board there if I’m going all the way to New York. If I get off at Newark, I’ll have boarded at Long Branch

[@EdWhizAviationTrains]

Enjoyed watching 👍😎

[@JoshuaTheTransitProdigy]

Beautiful videos, I enjoyed your action.

[@1365Amtrak]

Nice vid, Something about Railfanning in the early morning is just so enjoyable :)

[@PedroLopez-hw4es]

Wuao metro park station 👌

[@kevinhoward9593]

I think they need to relocate that station to somewhere thats not on a 45 degree angle when you board.

[@NortheastCorridorFilms]

is that wheelslip? 9:40

[@FanRailer]

very minor wheelslip, maybe.

[@TrainsOnGoPro]

Nice Video! I like the silver EMUs!

[@northeastcorridorrailfan6732]

3 things, Great video!! 2. What do you use to record? 3. How do you get the whole video to run so smoothly?

[@FanRailer]

My iPhone.

[@leveskockaa]

15:20 is what I came here to see, not disappointed

[@anuragsingh168]

can any one tell how thwy manage trains with different operating speed on the same track

[@allyreneepenny9447]

What for pretty trains 💯👍

[@233CFH]

At the 2:30 mark, is that the Amtrak Palmetto service?

[@AdriantheSpotter]

do they use horns at metropark frequently?

[@q21a27]

I had no idea they're running that many ArrowIIIs. Is it that they mostly run them during rush hours?

[@XBKLYN]

You see them all day long on the NEC and the M&E although many off peak trains are just a few cars long.

[@kingofthemonsters3712]

@@XBKLYN so basically they can be found on the railroads electrified lines

[@tekmom49]

Are these lines handicapped accessible? I'm in a wheelchair.
