Across Connecticut: From New Haven to New London

Recommended Posts

Special thanks to Fred G for taking me around all the great spots he shoots daily. We covered New London, Old Saybrook, Niantic, Westbrook, Guilford, and Branford.

By the time I got to New Haven my hands were icicles and weren't up for anymore train shots.

 

Enjoy the pictures more in this gallery.

Really awesome photos from Connecticut, the Metro-North and Amtraks are very busy indeed, :tup: :)!

Thank you MegaBus, for expressing a real compliment.

 

Thats not Metro North thats ConnDOT

 

Nice too!

I don't see any Shoreline East trains in the pictures, so where did you get ConnDOT from?
Well isnt West Brookl ConnDOT becuz of the logo? And some of the stations above.

Amtrak owns all the track that I pictured above. And yes ConnDOT runs its SLE trains on it. Maybe he's referring to he pictures posted outside of this thread, which you didn't look at.

Nice.

 

I have not seen 939 in a looong time in person.

 

- A

Thanks Andy, you saw it here! :P

 

Slammin pics!

Nice photos, but the 4th pic, although a nice shot, clearly shows trespassing onto the ROW.:tdown:

 

edit - probably a good idea to pull that shot, not give anyone ideas that it's ok to stand there.

 

Anyway, the shots are terrific and it's good to see same ground through someone else's eyes (although I'm still calling AEM7 947 the Fred Shot :P )

There's a SLE station pictured twice; I'm curious as to where Metro North fits in the pictures :confused: Perhaps Megabus thought the station was MN?

Yea, I stole your "Fred shot", come chase me! :deadhorse:

 

It's still Amtrak trackage :P

He's talking about the station, not the tracks.

Oh how sweet it is ,Your pics are (H)ot ,<R>eally like the Beach/briddge shots

and That (A)cela was moovin' huh ,Your Cam had trouble catching up ,About how fast were they moovin'?

 

Thanks KR, if you're talking about the Westrbook shot, it was approximately 90 miles. The other ones were much slower, but it's the light that made my cam slow down.
