Depends...But the Kawasaki M9's are supposed to like the Kawasaki M8 replaced the M2's M4's & M6's. However they did keep a 24 units pair of M2's for emergency contingency fleet.
On the weekdays Monday - Friday , Metro North run 4 trains coming from & going to Wassaic. On The Weekends Saturday & Sunday however , Metro North runs 1 train coming from & going to Wassaic.
Their no third rail over the crossing points train have to hold speed over the points and can't move the handle or they will slow down and stop and will need to be move by another train the same thing go for train washes
these trains come like every 10 seconds, and its odd too because these have to stop at stations so the train behind the other train might crash or something. Some trains run express too?
If You Mean The Valhalla Train Crash On February 3, 2015 , No This Is Not The Sight Of The Crash. See I Was At The Cleveland Street Crossing , The Sight Of The Crash Happened At The Commerce Street Crossing Which Is 1.3 Miles From Where I Was.
The train did stop at the station & some station on Metro North Railroad, stations like Valhalla, can hold a certain amount of train cars in a station. Valhalla Station can hold 6 Cars in total.
It part of the horn sequence operators do One long Another long One short And one more long until they pass over the crossing. Some driver will hold the horn longer or sometime the horn will have a slight delay of going quiet Also, the train station is just north of the crossing. Metro North trains mainly sound the horn when passing or stopping at stations to warning passengers. Metro North's Peekskill Station is another example of this.
Metro-North has dual-mode locomotives that can be switched between diesel and electric operation. The railroad also uses catenary on the New Haven Line.
Most tracks north of North White Plains don’t have a third rail, so Diesel engines are necessary. Some diesel run as though trains to Manhattan sometimes.
1365Amtrak I live near the Croton-Harmon station and this is one of the two basic types of horn I hear. So does Metro North use the Leslie S2M and Amtrak whatever the other horn is that usually has 4 or 5 chimes in sort of a major chord?
Video brings to mind when I had near-fatal heart attack at a local gym and open heart surgery at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla - That was July 15, 2010 = HOW TIME FLIES like a BULLET TRAIN!
The Weather Man So do the Metro North trains use the Leslie S2M and the Amtraks use whatever the horn is that has 4 or 5 chimes and sounds in sort of a major chord?
The Weather Man Cool abbreviations there! Sometimes you only end up hearing 4 chimes, is that just because the 5th is sometimes obscured by the 1st, or is it a different horn?
These train tra c ks arent like the LIRR whrre the Metro is quiet and not very good sounding in my opinion though the lirr tracks have a satisfying sound especially in RR crossings
