This is awesome to see its incredible how the engineering and structures are still there for the Northeast corridor from NYC to Boston granted the New Haven to Boston section being newer. Also curious on the New London Station in which is the third track going to be electrified since it was shown on an Amtrak official document of construction but nothing has happened there? Which is weird doesn't it disrupt service on the NEC Amtrak services and SLE?

@51:01 Why is there a gap there? Do the trains just lower the pantographs and coast across?
@nathanjiang1008 күн бұрын
so the bridge can move easier. note that the catenary is raised to allow the pantographs to spring to the highest setting without hitting anything and the train coasts across the power gap.

@@nathanjiang100FY23 was also supposed to see the construction of VELTRI interlocking around MP 133 east of Mystic to break the distance between GROTON and HIGH, but it seems that hasn't happened.
@@connecticutmultimodaltrans8226 yeah this was shot a few days ago so it’s pretty much the most up to date you can get
any idea on the interlocking and milepost (NYS) at timestamp 17:39? it's currently under construction. seems like the 3rd track will be constructed between the fence and the catenary support posts but I don't know for sure.
@@nathanjiang100that’s Leggett interlocking.
Very nice view and video
Let me know where you Might be for Cannonball this week
yeah sure, probably around Sayville or Patchogue bc it’s a similar longitude as stony brook. not sure if it’s possible to walk to Bayport from the two stations.
@@nathanjiang100 it’s kinda far. Would go to whichever. You go to school at Stony Brook?
@@3985uprr my mom went to school there so we go often.
T@@nathanjiang100Stony Brook yes. The birthplace of Blue Oyster Cult.

Wow!! Great video! This was filmed on my Birthday which is June 6. Also! I haven’t been on the Silver Meteor in years! I’ve only been on the Northeast Regional and the Acela!
