Kicking Up A Cloud Of Fresh Snow
Title:  Kicking Up A Cloud Of Fresh Snow
Description:  A Metro-North express to Grand Central kicks up a cloud a snow as it races through Fleetwood Station at 7:20 AM on Monday, February 13, 2006. A strong snowstorm the day before dropped two feet of the white stuff on the metro NYC area. The storm closed the Harlem Line for much of the day. Limited passenger service continued throughout the storm on the Hudson and New Haven lines.

Long Train Comin'
Title:  Long Train Comin'
Description:  This BNSF double lash-up is struggling hard to meet the challenge of the rugged terrain of suburban New York City. In its relentless beeline across southeast New York State and northern New Jersey, the unforgiving CSX River Line makes no concessions to the undulating geography, cresting one rugged grade after the next, to heights ranging anywhere from 10' to almost 50' above sea level, often as far as a hundred feet from the nearest civilization, and all the while flanked by towering peaks that soar over 1,000' into the heavens. Forget about Sand Patch, Donner, and Tehachapi! Make no mistake, the River Line is no place for rookie throttle meisters! This is REAL railroading!
