I'll be riding through here again at the end of May. Can't wait!

Beautiful hope you can get more footage.

Ridden this stretch of track several times over the years. Thanks for the view!

I have heard of the MARC and the Metro accidents but not the Fort Totten.

22:07 ok wtf is the point of having concrete ties for just 10ft while everything else is wooden? Also i love the Capitol Limited. Especially during the winter time.

Test hed

I miss Rockville and the Roy Rogers there

6:35 is the crossing I railfan at, and 8:15 is the site of the 1996 collision

It is kind of of sad how poor the condition is of the track. Especially from 23 minutes and on. Severely neglected infrastructure.

Notice the WMATA subway line next to it - that is the Red Line - the core of the WMATA in Montgomery County. I took it myself - not the Capitol Limited.
