  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 26 ส.ค. 2024
  • Went out on a beautiful warm day to give thanks to my 10,000 subscribers and capture the horns that make up a new team, “The Princeton Hornshow Tigers”. We also covered the Dinky and take a ride on these MU museum pieces. Amtrak put on their usual high speed show. Those Arrow MU Westinghouse AA2 horns bring us back to an era of quaint Interurban railroading. Enjoy!!!

    10K subscribers, Congratulations on your hard earned milestone. Native born Bronx guy, all of these episodes bring me back home as I was a real train kid. Your respect for the old and the new, with the possible exception of SEPTA’s Silverliner IVs, and your highlighting of the military liveries mean a lot to our troops and vets out here. Keep it up, rain or shine. We appreciate it more than words can express.

    It takes a lot of dedication to stand out there in all kinds of weather at dawn until night. It also takes intestinal fortitude to opening yourself up to comments from the current culture. Many opinions are negative just to be contrary to what you say. If you say one thing you’ll hear 5 contradictory opinions. I’m a Retired airline pilot who grew up listening to the Albertson stop LIRR, Oyster Bay branch. I never knew the technical name for the horn. K5LA. Keep on giving your views even if you get negative feedback. Those have the option of not watching.

    Your comments about the Silver Meteor brought back fond memories. In 1969 my wife and I were going to Fla to see my parents. It was a rainy day. We were in the obs having a beer, when I noticed a small light in the distance, It was a GG1 pulling a clocker to Philly. We were doing at least 70. The GG1 passed us like we were standing still. Great trip.

    Congrats on 10K. As a former long-time Long Island resident and short-time Delaware County (PA) resident, I appreciate your keeping us expatriates up-to-date on area rail activities. I also worked in Princeton for 3 weeks (Mon-Fri only) but never went to the station. I seem to remember a speed limit of 90 mph on long-distance trains in this area, but maybe that was because they were using E60s at the time. Now it seems like everyone, even the long-distance trains, can go thru Princeton Junction at 125!

    The Dinky is the easiest place for me to go when I need an Arrow III fix and I don't feel like trying to guess when I will or won't see them on the main NEC. My daughter (now 5) loves to go for a quick ride from Rahway or Metropark to Princeton Junction and then on to Princeton for a walk through the campus and some lunch at a crepe place in town. The only bad news is now she wants to go to Princeton when she gets older...of course I'd be proud of her if she did, but uh...does anyone have any tips on winning the lottery?
