    • @toib.7143
      @toib.7143 6 месяцев назад

      @googlefan11: You are so right, I usually watch the Flagstaff cams daily, but I had guests over far past the #3 arrival and departure, so I'd gone to the feed, with the intention of catching the arrival and departure, so in realtime, I noticed the lights and the gates coming down, and the lights from the locomotive. I could see it approaching, but as I waited it appeared to move very slowly, I began to watch, and I thought must be something wrong with the engine, and was shocked when it stopped altogether, I thought what a spot to breakdown completely, especially when I saw the engineer come around with his spotlight, walking past his lead engine and 2nd engine. I then switched to my other view and saw eventually he was joined by others going back to the otherside again, then coming down out of the 2nd engine with a guy wrapped in that blue blanket. What a priceless surprise that turned out to be. I hadn't considered people actually did something like that. I always thought that when my dad used to tell us kids that he, two of my uncles, and a couple of their friends used to do that, traveling the country that it was just to entertain us. That the security was of the highest levels. Now I've witnessed it live. I feel a bit sorry for the young man and hope he won't be dealt with too harshly. I probably will raise someone's ire saying that, but it's how I feel, so save all your Yada, Yada, Yada, about a crime, stealing etc. I Get It!!

      These are two M8 cars (electric multiple units) typically used by Metro-North Railroad on the New Haven Line and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) for the Shore Line East. The railroad cars are manufactured by Kawasaki. The pantograph for the electric units is in the down position. I am assuming they are being shipped to the east coast.
