Bringing up the Rear
Title:  Bringing up the Rear
Description:  Back at this time, Amtrak was in its final days of having road railers and reefers on their trains. While I didn't like how the consists looked with them, it was nice to document them.

MMA 148
Title:  MMA 148
Description:  The former Montreal, Maine & Atlantic had some rolling stock of its own. The RR went out of business in 2014 after a 2013 derailment that occurred. It was nice seeing this car this day!

SPERRY TRUCK
Title:  SPERRY TRUCK
Description:  The Sperry Truck makes an inspection of the Chicago Line at Amsterdam station. This scene has changed significantly with the removal of the telegraph lines in late 2007 and the signal bridge being removed in 2011 and replacd by Safetran ground masts. The detector now says CSX MP 177.4 instead of Conrail, Guy Park, NY.

AMTK 700
Title:  AMTK 700
Description:  700 & 823 shove a mail car north for tonight's Lake Shore Ltd. 700 was repainted in 2004 Phase Vb and then in 2017 into the Empire Phase III paint. This Phase III paint scheme was sharp. 700 also has a nose hatch now that was cut in during 2020. It required the removal of the nose numberboard. This unit and 711 were the only units I am aware of that returned from Beech Grove with the numberboard intact. The hatches were cut in because Amtrak was operating into Grand Central for a time and with the narrow tunnels, MN has nose hatches on their own units. So Amtrak began to cut hatches in over time. 700 was the final holdout and now all 18 units have been refitted.

AMTZ 410110
Title:  AMTZ 410110
Description:  A roadrailer in phase IV brings up the markers on #48. Ironic how I didn't like the roadrailers at the time on this train, and now I am glad I got this picture in retrospect!
