Long Island Railroad (LIRR) M3 Front Window EXPRESS Ride Penn Station to Douglaston

[@noyonb1483]

Living in Scotland I’m amazed at how much passengers talking is audible in the cab - it must take drivers some time to tune it all out. Love the video and playing Train Sim World 2 on LIRR driving M3 and M7 around NYC. Thanks!

I think this train has a small driver's cab on the right side of the aisle, so the front middle window is accessible by passengers to look and film out of, same as many of the trains on the NY subway. That's why the voices are so clear, the cameraman is basically in the passenger area. (Unlike most British trains which have full width cabs.)

11:40-11:52 you can see where the old Elmhurst Station platforms used to be.

That is some really nice trackwork! Thank you for uploading this. Subscribed.

Fun listening to the train's various motors power down and then back up as it passes through sections of track where there's a gap in the third rail system. Watch carefully for long gaps and you'll hear the whirring sound vanish and reappear.

The ventilation system , and also the lights blink on and off ! I don't believe the new trains do that , they have back-up power ! These original Metropolitans M3'and M1's before that were the best !

Great video! I know yellow over green is approach medium but at about 7:45 I saw a yellow over green over white. What's that about? Thanks

[@diddy5678]

Keep these vids coming! I'm interested in the westbound by pass and the eastbound re route for Amtrak. Thank you!

Excellent video!!

[@rhbeadlejr]

The stations don't seem to have any signs that passenger can read to know where they are.

[@joshl4693]

They do, you can see a total of 9 signs at Bayside (24:00) that say "bayside"

[@angelsiguencia290]

You passed woodside that's my place

[@cats0182]

What was the "slow walk" for the last part of the trip? I saw 45 for speed signs. The track was clear ahead. Yet he was slow walking for a while.

We were stuck behind the 6:14pm train to Great Neck that was ahead of us.

A long way from South Pasadena, California.

Это электричка?

Tunnel looks so new!! Not like the subway tunnels. Ugh. 🤷

[@stevencuffie537]

Those tunnels are just as old as the subway tunnels

[@MaryHernandez-5909]

@@stevencuffie537 Hi. Wow you can't tell!! It looks like the new 7 train extension. Thank you. 😊

[@stevencuffie537]

Those are the East River Tunnels

[@qjtvaddict]

Ali Muhammad Most LIRR tunnels are just the east river tunnels to penn and the Atlantic tunnel to ENY that’s it
