Headed for the tunnel |
| Description: |
The Ringling Bros circus train is about to enter the East River tunnel at Hunterspoint Av in Queens behind a trio of E60s, which just took over from three LIRR MP15ACs. The train will be turned over to Conrail once in Jersey, and spotted near the Lincoln Tunnel entrance. Tomorrow the equipment and animals will be taken through the tunnel to their show in Madison Square Garden. I am standing on the LIRR Hunterspoint Av station, MP 1 in the foreground is the distance from the Long Island City float bridges, now long abandoned. The subway train behind the Amtrak power is the No 7 Flushing-Times Square train, seen about to leave the elevated line is has been on since just after leaving Main St, and enter the tunnel to make its Hunterspoint Av stop, then Vernon-Jackson, then on into Manhattan. The cars date to 1963, just prior to the Worlds Fair. |

One of the more unusual moves to run through Penn Station is the Ringling Brothers circus train, which uses he tunnel to run from the LIRR to a staging area for Madison Square Garden out in the Jersey meadows. We see it here at Hunterspoint Av on the LIRR as it heads into the East River tunnel. |

Palmetto |

The Palmetto had an early departure from New York, putting it in the DC area mid day. Here we see it in a panoramic view of the Alexandriia rail scene, passing the station that served, at one time, Southern. RF&P and C&O. Their freight traffic passed on the outside tracks, which it still does, though now NS and CSX. To the right, the newly built(at the time) Washington Metros King St station is in service. |

Auto Train |
| Description: |
One of the more interesting Amtrak operations was the Auto Train. They took over the failed train after Auto Train Corp went under. It was a chance to see Amtraks name on the side of freight equipment-they had a fleet of auto racks-and also some of Amtraks most unusual power, their fleet of GE P30CHs, known affectionately as "pooches." Heres a pair southbound out of Lorton. |

Amtrak Zephyr |
| Description: |
Amtraks version of the Illinois Zephyr makes its presence knows as it rolls down the racetrack to its next stop in Aurora with all of three cars. The railfan chase vehicle is at left, a 1977 Chevelle that had 122 000 miles on it at the time. It served me well. |

Big bridge |
| Description: |
A northbound Amtrak train comes off the steel bridge over the Occoquan River near Woodbridge. This was a good location, as it was easy to access by a crossing at the north end, or later in the day, from adjacent US 1, seen to the right of the train. |
