4K/60p: LIRR M3 Front Window Huntington to Penn Station 

Even to watch the video on a late July day in North Texas, the view refreshes as if you were there.

when my mom's family first moved to Huntington (from Queens) in 1968, both the LIE and Northern State ended at Sagitkos/Sunken Meadow Parkway; then to get east, take 27 (Sunrise) on south shore or 25 (Jericho/Middle Country rd) on north shore. Can Google amazing photos of these LIRR train stations from early 1900's !!!! Thank you Mr. Master; this vid is awesome.

Grew up in Syosset and married and lived in Mineola and Huntington. I rode those rails more times then I can Count...Brings back memories...Thanks

Seeing all this old infrastructure from the 20s is amazing They really knew how to build infrastructure back then

When I saw the name Huntington I thought it would be my hometown in Huntington, West Virginia but I see it wasn't. Great video 📸!

Sunnyside Yard is packed! The first time I saw that was back in the mid-1970s when I took the Amtrak United Aircraft Turbo train to Penn Station to meet my aunt who then drove me out to their house on Long Island. Back in the 1970s, the yard was full of New Haven washboards EMUs, even though everything was under Penn Central, Pennsy-lettered and PC-lettered GG1s, and lots of other consists including those from the Southern Railway because they didn't join Amtrak.

Terrific! I've seen the rear view, now here's the front!

Love this. My sister used to live in Kings Park and I took the train to see her frequently. I loved it. Easier than driving from here (Matawan, NJ) and for me, more fun. Train from here to Penn Station, then jump on the LIRR. I miss it. (And her - she moved to Florida.)

Great video, love the front window!

The concrete and steel still in good shape 100 years later. Amazing I see concrete culverts that were built in the 30s that are still like the day they were poured and then see 5 year old concrete that has completely fallen apart. There is no pride and quality like there was back then. Seeing infrastructure from the 1700s that is still solid just fascinates me. How they could have built walls of stone and mortar and they have held up this long just seems impossible

Great Video!!! That's 1631 the 8:04am from Huntington to Penn Station!! I know the engineer on that train

WOW! Great video, like it. Wounderful. Greetings from Russia. Alexandr.

This brings back memories. Used to take this route on my way back from Stony Brook.

Used to live in Huntington, will be moving back, to Greenlawn. Thank you for this!

Thanks man. Seven years ago this was my daily commute. Nice to have the chance to take a look and see what's changed since then.

Memories! Great view! 🤙

Man what a awsome straight away!

Nice to see right of way improvement, much needed in the US.

I loved cta and new York trains and busses

Ugh, the old Cerro Wire site that sat unused for decades is now a stupid Amazon warehouse. It could have made a really nice park&ride + bus connection. You’d have easy ability to do ramps to the Expressway and Northern State, and space to put a huge parking garage. With the third track and East Side opening (some day..), you’d be able to clean up traffic in towards the city by moving them out to that area by train. Faster commute for drivers - they’d take the train.

Live chat was great

Heard the comment about “a hard time getting engineers”. I got called to go to an engineer recruitment event in March. I have the signals and have already been studying them

Does anyone know when the LIRR extension into Grand Central Madison is to open (it was supposed to open by the end of 2022)?

Very Cool!!!! Thank you for sharing. Can you explain briefly the bells. I'm thinking one is to cancel the Alerter but not sure what the others were for. Maybe to communicate with the onboard crew?

Great video. Thanks for posting. Q? What is the "telephone bell" that keeps ringing at irregular intervals? Muat be particularly annoying to the engineer trying to concentrate on operating the train.

If you can say. How is it that you even gained access to record this video. And is the camera suction cupped to the window or maybe is on a gimble keeping it from bouncing around. Again, Excellent video.

First! Looking forward to this.

Good stuff. From a UK point of view accelaration doesn't look great, but I suppose that's down to your bigger loading gauge and hence heavier trains.

Says your videos not to be re-posted. Can I share your videos to my train group on facebook. They would enjoy this and your videos. They usually join lots of my members do to whom ever makes them there channels here on youtube. Please let me know by replying here asap. I never seen this till now and posted the first two I seen already but I will remove them if in the wrong. Sorry I do not always read below the videos. Being a senior woman I forget to sometimes. But I have had my train group on facebook for over two yrs. now. They do enjoy different videos i post daily. Tyvm God bless. ps I am a member of your channel now too. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.

Do you like a decent train simulator? You can match the last half of this video up with the Open Rails train simulator, Long Island Railroad route. You can predict the next stations from the open rails simulator map and scenery. Both real and imaginary match well.

57:24 is there inside the cab a signaling, or why there is a proceed with red signal

What is that bell I keep hearing? Is it some kind of alert bell?

What is the third rail voltage? Also, how much of the right of way is fenced in?

The whole routine and the designs of platforms are exact for a few exceptions like Russian.

Must've been a weekend train. Not many on that morning train.

Do you know the history of those boxcars at: 33:10?

Seems like the last horn blast really is useless - the train is already going over the road. What are the bell rings alerting?

telephone bell or the railway bell

37:06 local overtaking express

Is riding up front hit and miss? Only some trains and/or operators allow it?

I have always wanted to drive a train

Is it a local or express?

Heading out to New York end of next month I’ll see if I can get some views of my own

55:05 Grand Central portal

Great footage but the constant bell ringing was horribly interrupting

What is the ringing mean?

Hey you should become a locomotive engineer I did it for 20 years and I have a youtube channel try it its not as hard as you think you probably no most of the physical chararistics

I would like to be train operator. Can you contact me?
