You have an amazing sense for angles and perspectives for trainspotting! Beautiful locations there, feels great to see both Acela generations coexisting in this video, speed and aerodynamics dominate. I also like how ACS 64 locomotives have taken over without significant problems. What's with MBTA and flat wheels, though?

We're complaining about the horns because they sound like absolute _trash_; they're certainly out of place by American standards. Amtrak’s been using Nathan’s K5LA horn (or slight variations of it) since 1971 when Amtrak first started. Why change what's worked for over 50 years? “If it ain't broke, don't fix it.”

Most of it has the infrastructure in place? Hardly. Only one MBTA line has overhead Catenary. Everything on the northside and all the southside branch lines have none of it. It would cost billions of dollars for the design, engineering and construction of all the infrastructure required to add overhead wire. You would then have to retrofit all the shops to be able to handle electric trains and hire an entire Staff as well as all the buy all the trucks and equipment just to maintain the system. It’s far cheaper to operate and maintain a diesel electric powered railroad

The NEC (Northeast Corridor, in which these trains run on) is owned entirely by Amtrak and has concrete ties, fencing in areas it's needed in, and grade separation. Funding has gone into the NEC so hopefully more hope for removing aging infrastructure and outdated segments that slow all of our modern trains down. For special tracks, Amtrak is currently deciding a more straightforward route with special tracks for the train to run on to let it reach higher speeds and a smoother travel. NYC is really the main tunnel area, and new tunnel construction and tunnel remodeling is under way in some places, just gotta hope more gets done.

@@cy_torrent the NEC is most certainly NOT owned entirely by Amtrak. The entire section from New Rochelle NY to New Haven is owned and operated by Metro North and the tracks from the RI state line to Boston are owned by the MBTA.

Well this train runs on a track called the NEC, and supports a 2.6 trillion dollar economy, so basically the trains pay for themselves. Also on this route, Amtrak makes more than it gets! But either way it shouldn’t matter since Amtrak, like all other transportation companies in the US are subsidized by the government, and that’s okay! We need people to have access to safe ways to get around, and it’s a good way for us to spend our money. Amtrak has bipartisan support in Congress, don’t make things political when they aren’t!
