And I thought that I'd seen it all. Run in front of a triple digit moving train.. I'll stop right there. Good stuff, I'm loving your new narrated videos. You tell some pretty great stories.
A year late here, but oh man, you just reactivated a memory by saying "OoOoOzy." Watched all of your stuff during my college years when you used that name. Thanks for the great videos!
Very Nice Catches my man!! Especially those of 662, 100, and 108!! But the Tresspasser incident is probably y they fenced off the old platform in the 1st place. (Damn Tresspassers!!) It's a shame that it can't be repurposed as a trainwatching platform similar to the one in Macungie. But the new station is nice and I think I might check it out myself nextime I'm on the PA area.
Well they were going to put the fence in there anyways because there's one on the other side but yes, lots of people walking on the tracks to get to the creek, makes sense why they put one there. I agree that it's too bad they did not keep a small platform for train buffs.
Great video as always. I live near Reading where they unfortunately discontinued passenger rail service in 1981, but they are trying to get it back, which is so exciting. However, they said we are looking at 5-10 years until we see our first train. But it will be worth the wait. At least I still have my fond memories from the 70s of train rides with my grandmother who lived there.
Hey man, I just wanna say that you are my biggest inspiration to start posting on TH-cam again. I enjoy how well put together and solid your videos are. In fact, you also sparked my interest in the keystone corridor. Since then, I have visited 5 times. And i have gone to some of the spots in these videos like Irishtown,Middletown,etc. Thank you again for these amazing videos!
Unpredictable Pennsylvania winter weather? Actually it's very predictable. Cold. Snow. Cold. Snow. Cold with snow. Snow with cold. And so on... Just kidding man! I love Pennsylvania and always enjoy my visits tremendously! (Especially to Henning's Trains in Lansdale! Another story.) That Middletown station's very impressive, a classic look too. It's a lot better looking than the "bus station" we've got on Staples Mill Road here in the Richmond VA area! Fun video, and well done! A fast sixteen minutes! Thanks for posting!
Glad you like, and yes you are correct, we already experienced Spring and now second winter is here this week, might be some snow flurries Wednesday. Looks like I am not breaking out the mower until later this year, reminds me of when I went to school in Vermont!
@@CentralPennRailProductions Hey, when I lived in New Jersey I didn't stop worrying about snow until after the first of May! Getting caught in a freak blizzard the second week of trout season in April will do that to you! Thought I was gonna freeze to death!
Been watching your videos for many years. Pennsylvania, New England and back to Penn. Really enjoy your narration. Really adds a lot to the videos. Thanks for sharing.👍👍 And I too am a fan of Distant Signal.
I used that old platform to board my first ever Amtrak train. Went to New York for NYCC. Great that they got a proper station for Middletown now. And great callout on the coach lights, I had always thought they were class lights like back in the days of the PRR. Great video.
WOW. i haven’t lived in harrisburg in about 3 and a half years and had NO idea that this new station existed until now. i couldn’t tell you how many drives i’ve taken down 441 following the susquehanna to the western parts of lancaster county. i know exactly where this station is now.
It's noted that the phase three paint scheme on the AC-64 Sprinter is a commemorative tribute to Amtrak's AEM-7 locomotive that ran on Amtrak from 1979 to 2015 they were put in service to replace the GG1 electric locomotives from the Pennsylvania Railroad and the non-reliable E60 electric locomotives we're surprisingly still work for Amtrak for many more years and we're retired as recently as 2004 having survived to see the first Acela Express passenger trains to be put in service The story for the AEM7 doesn't end here two of these engines have been sent to California to Caltrain for testing on their line once the electrification from San Francisco to San Jose is complete
Not sure if anybody noticed the Train Sim World 2 advertisement on the 662 as it passed, since the NEC is one of the add-on routes for the game for those interested.
Great video Central Penn! I love the Phase III wrap on 662. I know you no longer use your Sony AX100 for filming videos but I noticed on some older videos that you were able to get awesome focus on your camera, do you remember if you used Manual Focus or Auto Focus?
I absolutely love your content! I saw your about page, im just curious how you get 60P out of your AX100, the specs only allow for 30p? I film on an AX700 and am just amazed at the clarity of your videos. Would you mind sharing some of your tricks? I would greatly appreciate it !
Another monster station for what was a small stop that services only a handful of people at a time. The paid parking is very annoying I can't even pull into the station in Berlin anymore without worrying about a ticket and the music ruins the once quiet relaxing small station.

Love the content you've been pushing out, been around since the OoOoOzy days .
Thanks, and those were the good ol days lol

I will miss the old Middletown platform. I thought it was pretty cool. I do think the new platforms/station will be good though. Neat video!

@@CentralPennRailProductions IKR!! they should do that. Maybe someone will suggest it to the town. Who knows?

Wishing all your videos had commentary. Really well done.

Nice angles & photography, love the new station too...
Thanks as always!
Nice video! I really appreciate the heart and soul you put in your videos.
Haha I try, thanks for the comment, it means a lot!
The Phase V on the Genesis really does nothing for them, they look so much better in the other liveries. Nice catches!!
I agree, I really like the Phase VI on the GEs.
Great video. The tour of the new Middletown Station was much appreciated.
Ah ok. Well nice it's getting an update.
great video
Another fantastic video!
Thank you!

Always love your videos. Wish you’d do more

wow the Phase III wrapped Sprinter looks really, really good
I have definitely enjoyed and learned from your videos about a not often shown part of Amtrak. Keep up the good work

Thanks!
This is awesome 👍
Great video and nice job on the shoutout to distant signal and Danny Harmon he puts out great videos as well
wonderful video loved it. I have been to some of those spots
I initially read the title as "Farewell Keystone Corridor!"
I was VERY worried for a few seconds.
Not sure if anybody noticed the Train Sim World 2 advertisement on the 662 as it passed, since the NEC is one of the add-on routes for the game for those interested.
What beautiful horses the Amish have.
And that (5:05) is what they mean when they say there's disruption due to "an incident" 😑
And the Darwin Award goes to the bridge crosser.
Yeah, I had no idea he was going to do that, I had some choice words with him afterwards LOL
@@CentralPennRailProductions I'm sure you did, indeed!! He definitely wasn't using his noggin.
looks like this was only a nominee today.
@@CentralPennRailProductions Am I the only one who finds it even more ironic that he as a sling on his right arm?
@@CentralPennRailProductions was he acting dumb
Great video Central Penn! I love the Phase III wrap on 662. I know you no longer use your Sony AX100 for filming videos but I noticed on some older videos that you were able to get awesome focus on your camera, do you remember if you used Manual Focus or Auto Focus?
I use manual focus 99% of the time on any camera.
Good Stuff
Cool

Any restrooms at the new station?
It's just a platform so I don't think so.
@@CentralPennRailProductions Ah ok. It looked fairly nice, hence my question.
Do you only film or do you take pics or do both?
I just do video so I can focus on getting all of my shots the way I want.
@@CentralPennRailProductions I only do pictures, because I feel engines sound the same and id rather have the photos to have.
I. Guess the sensors are not working.
wawa!
Another excellent video.if the idiot who ran across the tracks right ifo the fastly aproaching train was a cat hed have 8 lives left
ACS 64-7
Hate seeing the locomotives being painted back to their regular schemes!
:(
Another monster station for what was a small stop that services only a handful of people at a time.
The paid parking is very annoying I can't even pull into the station in Berlin anymore without worrying about a ticket and the music ruins the once quiet relaxing small station.

What a fool
