- Seen here are 4 clips of railfan window footage from M-3 9772 from Penn Station to Jamaica. The reason some clips are like this is because in the beginning, we were held at the switch due to a train in front & because of my camera's heat sensor.
What you'll see here is 4 clips, first clip is the train leaving Penn Station and then stopping at a switch, the 2nd clip is the train resuming and then stopping at Woodside. The following clip is the train leaving Woodside which includes a race with a Port Washington bound train of M-7s and bypassing Forest Hills (did not get the Kew Gardens segment because of the camera's heat sensor). And the final clip is of the train arriving into Jamaica Station
This is one of the first ever M3 cars delivered. The M1 cars stopped at 9770. NICE CATCH!
Old school still out on the LIRR! Nice video!
LIRR Train #564, leaving Penn Station at 1816 for Oyster Bay, is paired with LIRR Train #501, which arrived Penn Station from Oyster Bay at 0635, Monday through Friday. These are the two trains I am aware of that make the round trip using Dual Power locomotives and Duplex cars.
Great video! I'm a little confused though and please don't make fun lol - the large double decker diesel trains that run on the Montauk Branch and the ones that go to Greenport on the Ronkonkoma Branch, do they have service to Penn Station and use the East Side Tunnels or not? I heard that they can't fit in the tunnels but I could have sworn I saw a video of a double decker LIRR train at Penn Station.
There are two kinds of those diesel trains. Those that run on diesal only (400s) and those that can switch between diesel and 3rd rail power (500s). Those that can switch can and do enter penn station via the tunnels. But I do not think they go out that far east very often. They're mostly 400s/diesel only and a transfer is required to/from an electric train.
They can fit in the tunnels considering that New Jersey Transit's Multi-level units go through those tunnels from the yard. I don't think there is any service from Penn Station at all, most, if not all service regarding those cars come from Hunterspoint Station in Long Island City.
I think I know which video you are talking about. I just cant remember who had it.
@danielklee92 But what was its final stop? All branches (excluding port Washington) take this path when traveling from Penn to Jamaica.
There's always that one guy in each car who friggin' won't stop talking the entire trip.
@danielklee92 there are trains that run just from Penn to Jamaica? didnt know that. I thought all trains stopping at Jamaica after departing Penn had a destination that was east of Jamaica.
I thought I knew all of the signal aspects. Flashing yellow over red?
Advance Approach
That was a good video
Great Video You Should Make More Buh On m-3's ! :)
I've always wanted to look out front with my camera
Great!!!
this one was going to Long Beach. The video ends in Jamaica
8:50 - 9:05 can really hear a flat spot on a wheel.
Even more fun to ride in a car seated right over a wheel with a flat spot - was once on a Metro-North M2 bar car, seated right over the wheels [and on the side with a nice flat spot] - felt like I got a butt massage every time we slowed down for a station stop. 0_o
5*****, BRAVO !!!
can you do more window views? for some reason this makes me super sleepy
Jamaica
Why so many lights in the tunnel? I mean, the train has its own light, and nobody else is going to be in the tunnel 99.9% of the time, right? That's a LOT of electricity and upkeep.
what branch was this on
Awesome tunnel footage! Too bad it was nightime; the exit from the tunnel would have been more dramatic.
City Terminal Zone
@smiauu I hope you are not a locomotive engineer :P
Most at night, disappointed
