CT Rail Commuters

@DanburyBranch What do they do at NHV when they lose the wire? Does Amtrak have dual-mode locomotives?

@CTRailCommuters Extend existing keystone trains that terminate in NY to SPG, it would be perfect 5-6 car lengths for demand and would allow through connections to NY and even points south like NJ and Philly. They run the same equipment as Amtrak HL trains

@Itsjoeco @eaconner Hideous!

@eaconner that's my best friend's project!

I'm a practicing Catholic, but the Church can't fill the pews of St. Michael's anymore even on Easter morning. I much prefer that our great ecclesiastical architecture be reused to house hundreds of new families like The Lucy than left to rot as a shrine to long-gone past. 1/

On Tuesday, February 24, we will operate on an enhanced weekend schedule with half hourly peak service on the Hudson, Harlem and New Haven Lines. We'll have weekend service on the New Canaan and Danbury branches, and buses will replace train service on the Waterbury and Wassaic branches. Please travel safely and check the TrainTime app and our winter storm webpage for the latest schedules and updates. mta.info/article/winter…
