[@slserenader]

nice video, do they always halt trains here when Biden visits West Point?

[@jonathanfrank4473]

What makes you think that the stopped train was at/near West Point?

[@slserenader]

@@jonathanfrank4473 the video description mentions how the trains halted for Joe Biden to visit the West Point graduation.

[@csx8851]

Yes they always stop train traffic on the river line whenever he visits the West Point Graduation ceremony each year

Hey,sleserender,
Ya know, I always wondered the same thing, I have to tell ya,the goods have to be delivered, ya got people waitin on those products.

[@Ron-zi3cg]

I can see why they're cruisin at high speed, because they're behind on their deliveries, they got a schedule to keep.

[@FreightTrainDrifter]

Awesome captures!! 👊🏼😎

Excellent video

Thank you sir! 👊🏼😎🚂💯

[@trains2057]

I thought trash trains had the lowest priority.

[@csx8851]

I thought so too but turns out work trains have the lowest

[@douglasskaalrud6865]

Trash trains should have the absolute highest. Where you going to put the garbage if things back up? Have to keep it moving to the dump or you’ll be swimming in it.

[@csx8851]

Lol I definitely agree with that

[@memy66]

What's with this title? Memorial Day is a national holiday regardless of who the president is.

[@csx8851]

Yes agreed however freight trains are always running including on holidays. The president just happened to be around that weekend which halted service is why I gave it that title

[@Construction_King]

The tracks run directly under the field at West Point.

[@csx8851]

Yes that’s true

[@mshum538]

Where’s the “ river line” ?

[@csx8851]

It runs between North Bergen, New Jersey and Selkirk Yard, New York along the Hudson River

[@JerseyRails104]

@@csx8851 North Bergen NJ* not Oak Island

[@csx8851]

@@JerseyRails104 I appreciate the correction sir! 👊🏼😎💯🫡

[@jimkelton4052]

I forgot, but I did run over it between 1979 and 1984. Just kidding. It was between CP 01 and CP132.

[@csx8851]

Wow no kidding! I salute your service! 🫡🇺🇸🚂💪💯 The days back then were totally different. Lots of nice power and good trains everywhere 🚂💯
