Nice great video!!!!!!

[@avasic1995]

NS913 thanks

[@forcechief]

That was actually a nice race/horn battle with #2737 and the M7.

[@radroadreversers564]

I saw on lirr train service that the 8:25AM train from Freeport to penn station at 9:08AM on Tuesday December 20th, 2016 was using a diesel train instead of an electric train.

[@JAILRail]

LIRR has all the nice horns.

[@avasic1995]

JacksonAndLansing Railroad yeah I agree

[@potatothorn]

Great Stuff! that was an awesome meet up around 9:50

[@avasic1995]

potatothorn thanks and it was awesome

[@Dani8lYT]

At 9:07, 1 electric train began the horn, & 1 diesel train did the same thing as the electric train.

[@radroadreversers564]

I saw train #504 the sign said oyster bay but the train did not turn. I'm talking about diesel #401 with c3 #5010 it said oyster bay in the sign but It didn't turn. The train was supposed to turn.

[@avasic1995]

RadRoad Reversers they always do it manually so it doesn't have to be on, it's better if they do manual announcing

[@radroadreversers564]

Was train #3502 an extra thanksgiving train.

[@avasic1995]

RadRoad Reversers no it's an everyday deadhead equipment train

[@byronchavarria4954]

NICE JOB BUT TRAIN 2703 STOPS AT PLATFORM B AT MINEOLA You Missed Some Letters Please Fix It

[@avasic1995]

Rosalina 751 that's because there were delays and a eastbound equipment waits for 2703 at new Hyde park so it's better to put it on track 1 to make up time

[@lirrrailfanking8654]

I got so confused at 10:19
