Posted by seabeachexpress on Wed Nov 18 14:06:17 2009, in response to Re: PHOTOS : Head-end on NJT!!! Part III, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Tue Nov 17 23:49:21 2009. The upper harlem was upgraded with cab signals all the way to Wassaic about 10-12 years ago. New Fiber cable was laid along the route from Southeast to Wassaic along with CP cabinets and wayside signals at the 2 or 3 passing sidings. There are meets in the peak-hours when they run 4 trains all the way to/from GCT. I remember the old days when there was a locked box on the Southeast platform that had a direct line to the dispatcher in NYC. Each conductor on a northbound would open the box to call for his warrant to proceed north. |
