  • Amtrak Northeast Regional trains fly through Canton, Massachusetts. Two AEM-7s remain in service; however, this video is evidence the Northeast Corridor belongs to the "Amtrak Cities Sprinter". Siemens ACS-64 locomotives appearing in this video: AMTK 646, AMTK 660, AMTK 638, AMTK 630, AMTK 615, AMTK 614. Also making a brief cameo is the Acela Express, led by AMTK 2002.

      Not through Canton Junction. They go about 115-120 through there. Maybe less. Through Mansfield MA they go 125.

      @@me-it9jn That is the max service speed of the ACS-64, while the max factory speed is 135mph i believe. The Acela is either 155mph or 160mph, i hear different answers. The Avelia Liberty will enter service at 160mph.

    Great video, great that they show the speed that the trains do just outside of Boston. Any idea which trains and where they go had the baggage cars on them?

    Did the second acs-64 have a bronze or steel bell instead of an electric bell?

    Real quick... how exactly is one able to get rid of the flicker from LED lights like the headlight on the top of the cab of the ACS-64's? I forgot how to do it and I thought I'd ask since I don't see any flicker in your video with the LED's. Thanks in advance!

    • @PaulsDMVRailroadsandAviation
      @PaulsDMVRailroadsandAviation 7 лет назад +1

      railfandude123 the lack of flicker in this video is because they are using their full headlights. If the headlight is set to "dim," only the ring of smaller bulbs is on, and a lot of cameras are sensitive to the light emitted by groups of small LED bulbs close together

      Fairfax County Railfan Studios Gotcha... I actually was able to fix this issue with some adjustments to my shutter speed. Thanks again!

    Is this the portion of the territory where the Acela reaches 155mph?

    • @FFred-us9tw
      @FFred-us9tw 3 года назад

      Acela speed here is 130MPH, Regionals 120MPH. Just west of the station is a 125/115 restriction. Their is no sections where the Acela goes above 150MPH.

      @@FFred-us9tw i know the maximum speed they reach is 150 im not sure why I wrote 155. In my territory maximum is 135mph but i know they have been testing new train sets recently up to 165mph since they installed constant tension catenary
