106 years after the famed Hell Gate Bridge opened, the bridge still impresses (although it could stand a new coat of paint). Crossing the bridge in this view is Amtrak Northeast Regional train 171, making its way from Boston MA to Roanoke VA – a journey of 587 miles. Train 171 will take just under 17 hours to make the trip. This 10-car train is dwarfed by this bridge's size. (New York, New York – November 3, 2023)
