Weird Sightings on the Rails Tonight... |
|
Posted by R36 #9346 on Sat Mar 3 23:40:08 2012 I took the Metro-North from 125th Street to Marble Hill. I took train #8753, the 7:08 PM train from 125th which made express stops and ended at Croton-Harmon. I was surprised to discover that the train was a diesel. Aren't GCT to CH trains primarily electric? Is that normal for a diesel to do a run entirely in electric territory under normal conditions?Another weird thing this evening happened on the 1 line. A train passed through the 225th Street station on the middle track a moment before the train I caught arrived. That train caught up with the other train, which I saw do a wrong rail move, entering the 215th Street station from the north on the northbound track. Why would a train perform such a move? |
