During the AM Rush Hour, some Harlem Line local trains terminate @ Crestwood, then head back down to Grand Central - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ

This brings back memories from years gone by! The slow lumbering ride through the maze of tunnels. The smell of the city & the darkness. Plus the air conditioning cutting in and out. Thanks for reliving the memories. Eventually the train speeds up to meet 125th street. The start of the journey north to White Plains North. My parents stop was “Crestwood” on the Harlem Line of Metro North.
I’m also old enough to remember when they had “smoking & nonsmoking” cars. Unbelievable today? They also had bar cars. Often the smoking car was the bar car. I never sat in a bar car or smoking car on purpose. It was that gross! They actually had a little door that would flop to cover the the “non” sign to turn it from non smoking to smoking.
The first minutes seems to be a ride in a haunted house of an amusement park. What a deep dark cavern of the city.
Boy, terminal interlocking in Grand Central is a real minefield...and I thought that Penn Station was scary with all of its hidden signals.
Great HD video! Bronx local and stopping at Melrose and Tremont - there used to be some more stations on the system that were closed in the 1960s because they could not accommodate longer trains. The old station houses that used to hang over the tracks were so nice as well. Fordham still kinda has that. But the one at Woodlawn I remember the most.
This is an excellent video! You captured it on a perfect day weather wise. I miss those m3a cars. Great work and great you were able to have the opportunity to film this. Thank you for posting this.
Graduated from Fordham University - this trip brought back some memories. Thanks for sharing!
What city and state is this in and what year did you graduate
Thanks for the ride friend!
Nice video
Tunnel needs the vacuum car
Beautiful lovely journey and what a marvlous view yessss just keep it coming 🚂🚞 God Bless You Amen
Hello. I'm your new subscriber.
I've been on the M3s on the LIRR, but I never got to ride them with a view of the RFW. Hopefully I get to do that on some of Metro-North's M3As while they're still in service. But anyways, great video as always. Keep up the good work.
Hey Lance Wright thanks for the 📹 video share keep'em coming hope you can get to Southeast on a m3 sometime 😀 😊
Love the fact that Metro-North still have M3s and they are so well takeb care of. Also love the fact that they have that beautiful blue line on the body of the cars.
Well, the conductor doesn't waste words - or time saying them.
Reminder of the fast paced NYC life :)
I travelled out of NYC to Chicago on Amtrak, changing trains in Albany NY. Brings back memories riding along here.
In 2018 some Amtrak services were using GCT instead of Penn because of track works between there and Spuyten Duyvil Bridge.
Beautiful RFW video!! I did want to know how the M3A looked from this angle since I took it back in 2015.
With the last of the M2s on the New Haven Line gone for a few years now, guess now the Harlem and Hudson lines are the last bastions of front-facing RFW views* on the Metro-North railroad... bummer - good excuse for me to go ride said lines though! 😂
26:02 U STOPPED AT MY FRICKIN HOME STOP!!!!
Fantastic. Superb.
Great! Wish it went all the way to Southeast.
So cool 😎 love 💕 it thanks you!
Nice vid, thanks for sharing
The beeping every few seconds sounds EXACTLY like my microwave
Nice ride! Those M3As are fast! I have to do a commuter rail trip someday...
I love the M3a
Superb video
That subway system is the most confusing thing in the world..it was like the movie warriors for me to get back to jersey from Harlem lol
8:06 - Pretty random site, not to be picky, but what the heck was that truck doing on the track bed? Construction work, perhaps?
Awesome video!
My favorite line
When did GCT replace the original position signal lights?
Thank you
Thats a shit load of switch tracks damn
Gonna miss views like these when the last M3As retire.
Nice video
This makes me miss the M2s on the New Haven quite a bit. I hope that the LIRR M3s come back.
I liked the M2s - M4s and 6s too - not just the RFW view, but also I liked how less "bright" the interior was compared to the M8s (though good god, what the hell did Morrison-Knudsen do to make the M6 bathroom odor control so bad? I swear, 2 cars away from a car with a bathroom, and you could smell that stank. 😂 😂 )
Why did it go so slow from GCT to Harlem?
Train in front of us
Aren’t there two northbound tracks ?
@@johnyessis4906 Yes. there are. However, as the video shows, one of the four tracks is closed for engineering works. And with numerous trains running inbound at the time of recording, outbound traffic is condensed to one track only.
10-car M7A @ 28:00!!!
Yeah I saw that too! Usually M7As are only 8 cars long, but they’re longer on LIRR for some reason.
@@thecooltrainguy5920 LIRR has longer platforms and a higher passenger demand.
Up to North White Plains only because the Substations on the 1983 electrified route to Brewster cannot handle 10-12 car M7As. Only 10 car M3As because those were ordered for the North White Plains Brewster electrification project
Hello, what school do I need to have to be a train driver in the USA.
So much track and so much distance travelled and yet so very few stations to achieve what a train network is suppose to do. Weird.
Is that a deadman signal (the double tone) sounding every few seconds of operation?
It’s either that or the alerter.
Is there any passengers on this train
i was on that train lmaoo
I posted my video 2 hours ago and it only has one view that's how badly it- 😭
So MTA North still uses their M3 but LIRR doesn't!! Typical. It's making me mad
What the hell is with that horrendous PA system? In today's day and age you still can't come up with a better sounding PA system where you can actually understand someone? Sounds like someone's got a pillow over their face with crap running in the background while they're talking, I'm from that area and I know all of those stations and I still couldn't understand what he was saying.
I am train
That was cool I feel like I been on a train today
Everything in America is so dilapidated. It's so sad.
Yeah I react the same way to American rail videos. They really don't know what maintenance is, or they rather refuse to invest in maintenance.
LOL! No it isn't. 🙄
