We enjoy a special ride through the darkness on a Metro North Budd M3A train. All stations, interlockings, passing trains are identified with infographics plus narration. This is the first time I did an RFW ride on Metro North. I hope to do more before these cars are replaced. I prefer to do these in daylight, but one has to take what one can get.

When I went to college in White Plains, I'd always ride the M3s if I could, or I'd ride at the back of the shore-liner cars with the P32AC-DMs. I loved the RFW spots.

You always make your rides more enjoyable with the information you provide along the way. You must be a very analytical guy to gather, organize, and present all those facts. It adds a lot to your videos.

Very enjoyable: Well done!I No need to apologize for it being at night. It was so good it stands on it's own as if you preferred to ride at night, plus no risk of washout from sun glare from uncooperative lighting angles.

Local trains used to skip the Bronx stations south of fordham road and Wakefield most of the time. I don’t know about current stops but it was very few trains that stopped in the southern Bronx stations. Wakefield had more trains than those but still most skipped it.
