Yankee Stadium - First NH Train RFW Shots and Station Pics

Recommended Posts

The very first train to the new station was way too early for me (too early for the New Haven line as well). I opted for riding the first New Haven line train in, and being the first around the wye in revenue service at MO (the Harlem Line train followed us about 15 or so minutes later).

This is the first train that we all boarded. We were just south of the station when it crapped out and we backed up to the platform where MN put us on another trainset. We left 8 minutes late but made up the time and arrived on time at Yankee Stadium. The train was full but not packed.

Interior. MN was checking train tickets on exit. I was allowed to keep mine as a souvenier.

Nice! Is that wide-angle distortion I see on the M3A there? Makes the shot look better, though.

 

Thanks, I used 17-35mm zoom.

Great work (F)!

That station looks like a complex of its own! :eek:

 

Thanks backline. The station is pretty cool. I think it should have restrooms but that's just me.
