Passenger Trains > Fresh edits - Along the NEC at SunsetDate: 05/25/23 15:55 Fresh edits - Along the NEC at Sunset Author: Mgoldman Until a few days ago, these photos from January I had only seen as
previews on the back of my Nikon (yeah - haven't you heard, lol). I haven't been out and about much last two years, due to some health issues, but I made it a point to seek out the Big Yellow Ball between late December and January. It's at this time of the year that the Sun sets along the ROW of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor. Here are a few trains that showed up in that very short window of opportunity! First: AMTK No. 614 - an ACS-64 "Cities Sprinter", leading a long distance Amtrak train north captured just shy of the Cornwells Heights station in Bensalem, PA (midway between Philadelpia and Trenton) Second: AMTK No. 611 racing through the Tacony section of Philadelphia with the city's skyline serving as backdrop. Last: AMTK No. 656 making its way north through Marcus Hook, PA, having left Wilmington 10 minutes earlier. More to come... eventually! /Mitch    Date: 05/25/23 16:32 Re: Fresh edits - Along the NEC at Sunset Author: Mgoldman And one "sunset" before sunset - from the new (improved) Market Street overpass in
Marcus Hook, PA, featuring a southbound Amtrak Acela Express bound for Wilmington, DE. A 12 mm photograph. /Mitch  Date: 05/25/23 16:54 Re: Fresh edits - Along the NEC at Sunset Author: birdman Beautiful. I hope your feeling better. Dick (aka Birdman).

Glad to see you are back and wish you good health for many more years to come. Gerry Gaugl Ottawa ON Date: 05/25/23 18:18 Re: Fresh edits - Along the NEC at Sunset Author: cabsignaldrop Absolutely stunning images! These are amazing captures.
