Amtrak's Capitol Ltd - REAR VIEW - Rockville, MD to Washington, DC Union Station 

I'll be riding through here again at the end of May. Can't wait!

Beautiful hope you can get more footage.

22:07 ok wtf is the point of having concrete ties for just 10ft while everything else is wooden? Also i love the Capitol Limited. Especially during the winter time.

Ridden this stretch of track several times over the years. Thanks for the view!

Interesting, on this stretch of track shown here there have been 3 major rail accidents. 1906 B&O train crashed into the back of a passenger train in dense fog, killing 53 people and injuring more than 70 at the Terra Cotta station( Fort Totten). 1996 MARC train collided with Capitol Limited in Silver Spring killing 11 injuring 26. 2 Washington Metro trains Fort Totten collided 9 deaths and 80 injured 2009.

I miss Rockville and the Roy Rogers there

Thanks. !(

6:35 is the crossing I railfan at, and 8:15 is the site of the 1996 collision

It is kind of of sad how poor the condition is of the track. Especially from 23 minutes and on. Severely neglected infrastructure.
