- Amtrak 286, the eastbound Empire State Express with turboliner power, makes a stop at the Buffalo Exchange Street station before Thanksgiving in November 1991.
Thanks Dad for the awesome footage!!
My favorite part of this video is the conductor - very old school, probably an Amtrak original. You don't see conductors like this guy very often these days on Amtrak.

beautiful capture of holiday rail travel.....thanks
Old school!!! Sweet.
WE had a chance to ride the rebuilt Turboliners , between Albany & NYP, just before they were pulled. Windows and the view was much nicer than the Amfleets. We sat in the power car and could here the air brakes etc.
I MISS THOSE TURBOLINERS
Again, great stuff! The conductor with the insane mustache is Wally. He's been retired for awhile now.
Thats my grandfather big wally Macker. Awesome video
Clean turboliner. Rare.
They do look great in the Acela scheme, but they haven't been in Albany since 2004. They're currently sitting in Delaware waiting to be scrapped.
the funny thing is they sound alot like AirWolf when they pass by.... I usaed to want to know what kind of train they were but never knew... so theyre part Jet- which is why they have that airwolf sound i noticed they didnt have that chuga chug like the FL or the Genesis(another 2 favorites - far as engine sounds)
The last place I see Rohn Turboliners is in Egypt on their national railway system, why did NY state not want them Rebuilt?
That conductor reminds me a lot of actor/comedian Rip Taylor with that huge mustache.
Wouldn't they have been the French ones? Last I heard the last of the Amtrak rebuilt RTG and RTL Turbos have been scrapped.
AIR WOLF!!!!
there up for sale as of april 2008 anyone want to buy a turboliner (raises hand)
Likewise. There is far more action at Depew, and the station is MUCH nicer.
