What a great video. Brings so many memories of when I used to live in Ulster County and would have to Metro-North from Poughkeepsie to GCT. I rode that line for at least 7 years. I can say I saw that line get overhauled. They redid all the tracks and changed the railroad ties from wood to cement from 1998-2002. Also, all of the platforms were redone. I always rode in the front car with my sister. We would always guess the car we would get, as the older models had names on them: Ravens Way, Ect..
Daniel K , because Metro North uses whatever will run, they are all Metro North's property. They're service facility is about 10 miles south in Croton Harmon.
My grandma died in September 2012 and lived near the Hudson Line. This video always brings me nostalgia

Why is there a New Haven P32AC-DM on the Hudson Line?

Thanks Monica!
Thanks!
Good question. I think top speed in between stops would be 70mph. But I am sure they could do more.
If your talking about the New Haven unit... Yeah. And I have to tell you I will NEVER get that close again...
202 sounds freaking awesome!
Thanks!!!
great job!
At 4:06 were you really that close?
Great shots! Really liked the mountain views. Where those in NY?
Bbyron smith, Yup!
Glad you liked the video!!!

Amtrak
Exactly how fast do these trains travel on the bases?
And what's the usual top speed?
hi what kind of locos does this line use?
+MI Rail Metro North uses GE P32AC-DM. Amtrak use GE P32AC-DM.
