Long Island Rail Road HD: 2 Hours @ New Hyde Park w/ M7s, DE30ACs, DM30ACs, C3s, & an M3 (3/9/15)

EDIT; Mineola action (8/26/16): • LIRR HD 60fps: 4 Hours...
All LIRR mainline action from 4:00 pm to 5:50 pm (not quite two hours, but close enough). Lots and lots of horn action from M7s, DE30ACs, DM30ACs, and an M3. Even a short MP15AC powered freight operated by New York & Atlantic Railway manages to sneak into the action. Enjoy =)

10:52 look at the little toddler waving at the train. Isn’t that adorable?

[@efxru]

It is actually :)

Good 👍 job I love it in Long island ny I love the video

[@andrewmpachetti]

Yes! My hometown station! Thanks for two hours, I usually come to watch though. And I love the sounds of the M7 when it stops just short of the crossing!

[@railfannerjose3979]

My childhood LIRR train is always the M7 i love how it sound ngl

[@low-keyforce7204]

Same, the departing sound is really enjoyable.

[@TrainLover-wt9ix]

What does that even mean lol 😂

[@seulgies..]

@@TrainLover-wt9ix I guess either there favorite childhood train or he or she rode it a lot that they enjoyed it

[@MJBYouTubeNetwork]

That M3 is most likely my Ronkonkoma train.

[@RayTac23]

Nice! At 7:22, some litter gets caught on the third rail and the receiver shoe of the Bombardier M7 had swept it and caused a big spark! You caught some nice horns and footage!

Did anyone notice any sparks coming from between the M7’s bogies and the third rail from 13:59 to 14:08

4:25 I live on long island but I haven't seen that train!

Look how close it is to the platform

[@Mongchong_123]

Loved every bit of this video!!

[@supermarioplush5158]

The long Island railroad horn in 2:27 is so cool

[@ghostengineer]

Although the main line rebuild will yield a better operating line, it’s gonna be a bit more boring without all these crossings. This is what made this part of the main line awesome

[@FanRailer]

It won't be the same, but we'll just have to head further east

[@GenesisSanctuary]

Nice stuff! I've only been to the LIRR twice, but I've been really wanting to get back out to Long Island one of these days. This line in particular is incredibly active, even on weekends. I even noticed that one of the DE30ACs in this video had a K5LLA on it. It's very odd hearing that type of horn on a commuter railroad, especially since they're usually only used on SD70ACes or SD70M-2s.

[@JStrop]

***** Mineola is a neat spot to go to if you ever have time, because of the junction where the Oyster Bay Branch splits off from the Main Line! And yeah, four LIRR locomotives have a K5LLA horn, and they sound awesome!

[@governorrat8640]

I see the LIRR everyday. Because a store is near the Long Beach Station.

I have been on Long Island railroad like 40 times

[@fc2078_]

Never

[@gabe3408]

+gacj2010 the train car has power even though it's not in contact with third rail. The car will go into coast but since there are many train cars that are in contact with the third rail it doesn't need to go into coast. Even though my rr is the Lirr I have taken the Mnrr on the New Haven line. Between mount Vernon east and Pelham there is a short lost of the third rail and you'll go into coast and then the pantographs will go up. I hope this helps your question.

How Come Certain Stations On The Lirr Are So Short?

[@yousgv8915]

Nice video

[@TrainLover-wt9ix]

1 day I will be like fan railer some day cause I’m a youtuber too who also records trains.

[@gacj2010]

At the street crossing , can't some person walk to the left or right on the track and contact the third rail and get zapped also .... how does the train get power at the crossing without third rail ....from cars behind pushing until it gets to it again or somehow through the other cars ??????

[@FanRailer]

Yes, and yes (to the first one). Each individual car is isolated, so as it gaps, it loses traction power and HVAC, but continues to be pushed / pulled along by other cars that are in contact with the third rail. As long as the train is long enough, you can get through a gap without stalling. This is why you don't see 2 car trains (non-revenue). They have the potential to get stuck in a particularly long gap.

[@gacj2010]

Fan Railer I see...so that's how they got past the third rail at street level...guess they didn;t want to do catenary

[@FanRailer]

The LIRR has never used overhead wires for power.

[@gacj2010]

Those cars they do use look great ..like big subway cars where as they have a third rail

[@rosebonbon9781]

gacj2010

[@JTC2227]

Those Double Deckers seem Pretty Active

[@HarrisonPeloso]

back when this area was full of grade crossings that never stopped activating

[@tubbylover9593]

How cool would it be if LIRR operated like Metra Electric? 1) There'd be more stops, improving air quality (as fewer miles will be driven); 2) it'd all be electric, further improving air quality; 3) it's just be more convenient! Also, SIRR should connect w/ the rest of NYC. WTC best not call SI the, "New York Times side" if it won't even connect w/ the rest of NYC.

[@myfishhasbeensteamed2289]

Is this station near east islip?

[@99skateborder]

What did you use to record this video i used a vivitar camcorder and the battery dies out instantly i want to record a long video without having the baterries die out so fast it uses AAA batteries and i always record for atleast an hour with a 32 mb sd card

[@FanRailer]

traintransport45 lol... I use my iPhone6... with the screen brightness on the lowest setting and airplane mode on, I can get about 2.5 hours of continuous video providing the battery is at 95% or higher.

[@davidsteiner120]

I love it Good job on Long island ny good 👍

[@railfannerjose3979]

Nd the wheels like wow i really need to start traveling along these line ssd

[@GRANDGREENSABRE]

de30ac's used to scare the crap out of me when I was younger lol I can remember waiting at Freeport for an m7 to take my family back into the city and all of a sudden on the Babylon track the de30 comes through lol and I'm hiding behind a pillar. lol good times

[@burdizdawurd1516Official]

GRANDGREENSABRE those DE30ACs have killer horns. It's kind of a mix with a PRR A200 but there's clearly more than one chime. It has this low, bassy tone to it, complimented by the higher 3rd and 5th. I don't know what the horn is, but perhaps the arrangement is a g minor chord?

[@algorithm1193]

I used to swim in my grandparent's pool as a kid maybe 200 yards from the Port Jeff Branch and whenever a DE30AC went by it sounded like Gabriel's Trumpet. I hid underwater until it went by. Those K5LLAs are deafening.

[@LuisMendoza-jx4sg]

me too I got Scared of the horns or the speed of the train 🚂 when I saw it coming I WAS FREAKING OUT SO I WENT INTO THE WAITING ROOM and stood there and my mom said it would be okay BUT DAMM THAT TRAIN WAS SO LOUD AND FAST
