  1. I'm sorry to say even though i live in the Northeast i haven't been on much. Not even the NYC subway system. Systems so far PATH System every line at least 2x Hudson-Bergen LR at least 15x NJT Rail 4 lines and about 30x Amtrak Keystone 1x Patco 1x By the end of this year Baltimore Light Rail Amtrak Northeast Regional to DC DC Metro NYC subways at least 5 lines Metro-North New Haven line Septa > Tram , Regional Rail , and Subway-EL Amtrak Regional to Boston ACES (Atlantic City Express) Amtrak Keystone 2x
  2. They were going to build a freight tunnel but now there are problems with that. But The land that would have become the Tunnel Approach is now being turned into Condos & mixed use. So they will now have to change the plans and on top of the leaders of the NJ Gold Coast are putting the pressure on Freight lines to shift there routes. Jersey City wants to take over 2 key freight lines and replace them with Light Rail same in 2 other cities. But i do see this tunnel going through within 10 years although the plans will be changed , Passenger & Freight Tunnel as part of the new Through Commuter line. Truck Traffic east of Manhattan is starting to get really bad. Also hopefully with this new Freight line , the Northeast Corridor sections in NYC & CT will be upgraded to at least 130mph form there current 90-110mph speeds.
  3. Even though my state transit agency is cutting raising fares. We do have some pretty awesome Projects still going forward. Like the New ARC Tunnel to NYC which would allow for double the capacity into NY Penn Station and allow for one seat rides into Manhattan via the Diesel lines. NJT order 48? Dual Diesel - Electric Locomotives which would make this possible. Also Electrification of the North Jersey Coastal line form Long Branch to Bay Head thanks to the feds. 2 New Light Rail extensions on the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail network. West Trenton Line service restored hopefully by 2013 , Northern Branch Extension by of the Hudson-Bergen LR by 2013. A few states and Provinces are buying our old fleet except Ohio? Please buy a few sets .... hehe. Heres what our Newest Electric Loco looks like , i filmed this on Sunday.
  4. I heard its Pretty good in terms on wifi standards , I will try it out in April when i take Amtrak Northeast Regional form Newark Penn to DC Union Station.
