Just noticed this but on the northbound line at Meriden, the concrete ties used appear to be the san vel ties used on the Northeast Corridor (the ones that angle downward on the outer rail). Really weird seeing them outside the NEC, rather than the standard concrete tie design

Judging from the stability of your video (no "side-to-side" or "bouncing" motion), the track appears to be laid on some pretty well maintained roadbed. It doesn't seem as if this stretch of r.o.w. sees much long-haul freight traffic. I say that because frequent freight train running seems to beat the daylights out of track, even when it's well laid.

It's class 6 track and the camera is mounted to the rear window with a suction cup.

CTDOT did a ton of work to improve the ROW and railbed with tons of drainage and squeezing out every degree and radii they could before the Hartford Line service opened in June 2018.

I got off the train in Meriden today and when it was a few hundred feet north of the station, a southbound train came in. Its not too often that meets like this occur.
