  4. Transferred to a local and these newer trains have full motion video ads. Fortunately our trains are older and don’t have these abhorrent displays for now.
    If I rode these trains on the regular, I’d travel with precut rolls of black shelf paper.
    Also, my iPod just shit the bed. I hate leaving the house.

  8. Next time I have decide between taking the train and driving, I should see if the Yankees are playing.
    The noise canceling headphones just can’t keep up, and nothing’s gonna help with the the stench of cologne.

  15. It's about that time of year.... has anybody seen Metro-North's LASER TRAIN out yet?

    It uses lasers to zap leaves off the rails! That helps prevent sliding or braking issues for the trains, especially in wet weather.

    It will be positioned behind an engine like in the photo and just running as part of the regular commuter fleet.

  19. Gotta go see, it's been 2 yrs! Grand Central Terminal has been transformed into a station again, basically. New lowest level (for LIRR) has trains which pass through. Outside of Amtrak trains 71-91, all train lines started or terminated there, hence the name. *Grand Central Madison* [Station]; link is to art installations there.

  23. We've got a super simple text only poster for our Mutual Aid Event Jan. 20th here docs.google.com/document/d/188

    if you're anywhere near Bethel, CT OR along the Metro-North Danbury train line, we really appreciate folks printing these out and slapping them on local bulletin boards!

    it really helps us get aid to folks that might not be connected to online communities.

  33. Got invited to this Riverkeeper meeting in Ossining. Planning to take the Hudson line and then either walk or bike the Old Croton Aqueduct from a little out from the Ossining #MetroNorth station. #OpenStreetMap says the path surface is dirt. The meeting is April 25 so it could be muddy.. #GoogleMaps is totally useless. If a car can't drive it, they don't fucking care and the path may as well not exist. With OpenStreetMaps I can make a notation as to condition.

  38. RT @samiliebman Structural issue at garage on W 51st and 10th, #Amtrak Empire Service suspended between NYC and Croton Harmon because of it. Many people cannot get their cars out. There are concerns about vibrations causing further issues. #MetroNorth cross honoring at Croton Harmon.

  41. Would anyone happen to know why #MetroNorth uses seven-car trains in the diesel territory to Poughkeepsie? From what I understand, all the platforms north of Croton-Harmon are six cars long. (With the two tiny stations as exceptions, of course.)

    Also, does anyone know how many cars are typically used on the other diesel branches? It looks like platforms north of Southeast are mostly four cars long, while the Danbury branch has a mixture of lengths and the Waterbury branch has *tiny* platforms.
