09/24/16 Here is a video of Amtrak Adirondack train 69(led by Phase III P32AC-DM 710) crossing the Spuyten Duyvil bridge from Inwood Hill Park. Plenty of workers near the bridge fixing the power cable. Enjoy!
10/01/16 Here is a video of Amtrak's Pennsylvanian blasting on the local track at Princeton Junction as a NJT makes a stop. Enjoy!
10/23/16 Here is a video of Amtrak Empire Service train 283 blasting through Castleton-on-Hudson at 110 mph. With David Todd Magill giving a hornshow, this "take 2" was shot from a mini tripod. Enjoy!
Here is a video from a cold day in February at North Elizabeth, including multiple Acelas, NE Regionals, both Crescents, and a Keystone, mixed in with some NJT trains as well.
A video of what seemed to me #661 with #662 last night.

Maybe for static crew training at SSY, but more likely than not, Ms. Matos and her gang will have a NB photo-op from their hideout, and Mr. EL3601 will have one WB along the Chemung River on his namesake road.
addendum: it appears that the gang videoed 68001 "Annapolis" from their hideout, rather than 8400 "Indianapolis" as Ms. Matos immediately reported. Mr. Moore notes that Amtrak hauled it up from Hialeah simply for the benefit of bigwigs to take a joyride "up the River" - oh, and maybe show it off to some Pols while there.

If it is, it's going the wrong way since it's headed south here and the word is it's on one of the Silver trains this afternoon.
Apparently there were some bigwigs on the ride up to Albany but I have NO more information than that.

12/03/16 Here is a video of Amtrak Empire Service 244 playing a sweet tune through Peekskill on P32AC-DM 714 two years ago. Caught the same engineer again this summer on the same engine leading the same train playing the same tune(Amtrak plays a melody)! Uncanny lol. Enjoy.
12/18/16 Here is a video of Amtrak Lake Shore Limited train 49 making it way into the sunset up the Hudson. In Full HD 60 fps, enjoy!
