Thanks Colin, don't worry, freights coming up next.

[@trainman1971]

@KenSNJ Guess what? As of some video I shot in April, 2304 finally has what it has been lacking for almost three years: a replacement numberboard!

[@TheBestTrainsAreReal]

What happend to the comet 1s? One day there running the next no where to be found on Septa Property

[@MrGamester66]

[@LIRR175]

Nice shot of the intervening track station!

[@bestname24]

[@MSRTA_Productions]

[@septafan]

Amtrak642Railfan Productions almost sound like a Wabco!!!

[@trainutjob]

Every now and then, I can get a decent variety, lots of GEVOs though.

[@trainutjob]

@LIRR175 Thanks!

[@MrGamester66]

Does septa still run comet 1s as of 7-12-2010????????

[@KenSNJ]

And they still haven't fixed rthe numberboard on 2304.

[@trainutjob]

@MrGamester66 Yeah, they still run them.

[@trainutjob]

Thank you, you know I've been considering it, but no one seems to express any interest in it.

[@trainutjob]

I doubt they ever will.

[@trainutjob]

Thanks, I can't manage to get that awful sound out of my Ears.

[@stevefromPA2]
