Quint Powered. After a mechanical failure on Amtrak Train 48 (Lake Shore Limited) near Waterloo, Indiana on the night of Saturday, December 3, 2022, Norfolk Southern 7258 (SD70ACu) was added in front of AMTK P42DCs 129 and 111. This got the train to CP 169 near Hoffmans, New York on Sunday, December 4, 2022. Needing engines that were equipped with ACSES for the remaining 25 or so miles to the Albany-Rensselaer, New York Station, Amtrak P32AC-DMs 708 and 705 (Phase III) were added to the now lengthy consist. The train ultimately would leave Albany approximately 2 hours late.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
