It’s another Summer season for the Montauk fleet of trains as we capture the first runs of these trains on Thursday/Friday/Memorial Day. You will see lots of long trains powered by double ended DE/DM motive power. The railroad pulls out all the stops for these holiday weekends in summer as they get whatever equipment for the Hamptons/Montauk trains that they can get their hands on. You will see lots of trains in extremes of weather, from brilliant sunny skies to heavy rain and thunder. You will hear all kinds of horns. You know how annoying those cab car horns are. Cheer up. I found a way to make them better single-handedly!!!

Enjoyable, love your commentary. Your grand daughter is right we do get some heavy thunder storms in that I-84 corridor between PA and CT with the Hudson Valley in the middle.

Using VRE horns to filter C3 horns is wild

I can stand those horns over our own

i love this video. I can get an idea of when the cannonball will pass thru Patchogue. By the way, you are so right about thunderstorms. they are never as bad they always predict.

That is a very long distance out to Montauk. I can remember once taking off from JFK on the way to Rome. It took that 747 jet almost 40 minutes to fly the entire length of the island and break out into the Atlantic.

Nice video and glad to bump into you after many years at Oakdale!

Great stuff. Let’s give credit to the DE/DMs. They are workhorses and, as with all EMD Power, that deep throated roar at notch 8 sounds so good.

You should stop off at Bayshore (starting at 6:00am) on July 08 and watch the "zombie apocalypse" revelers from Fire Island board the the "Death Train" back to NYC. We used stand out in the Ferry Docks in Ocean Bay park, with a beer in hand, and watch them board the Ferry. Poor zombies.

Hold off on your trip to California until the 2nd Weekend in August for a Caltrain surprise.

@3985uprr Месяц назад

I’m already locked in to my airfare and hotels. Nothing would surprise me on Caltrain.

At least the cars are double deckers.

Wasn't there a summer (7 - 9ish years ago) that the L.I.R.R.(MTA) had to lease foreign locomotives and coaches to fill in for the rest of the diesel-only branches because the Montauk branch needed practically all of their own equipment for the weekends?

Nice video! Do you take videos with an actual camera or smartphone? The quality is great.

Why do the majority of Montauk trains (year-round) from Penn Station only go as far east as Speonk? I get the SFCC exists for commuters traveling east of Speonk but the other two diesel lines (Port Jefferson and Oyster Bay; Greenport doesn’t count here because those never serve Penn) have year-round end-to-end service to Penn Station.
