This is an intriguing plan for Empire Service upgrades in NY State. Of course, there’s no funding associated with it yet. Crucial infrastructure would be a dedicated passenger track west of Schenectady to allow for more than the 4 current roundtrips to Western NY.

Looks like NYSDOT recently released their service development plan for faster and more frequent Amtrak Empire Service:
English
@RAILMag Part of any plan should include getting on board with NY Penn-Scranton service. The quickest route from NY Penn to Buffalo is not through Albany but rather Scranton and Binghamton. The Southern tier needs rail too, perhaps Amtrak could re-route the Lake Shore and Maple leaf.

@ZeynabDay @Zeulosence Man fuck people like you. Leftist infighting forever I guess.

@Zeulosence Because she's no longer challenging the status quo, she's become it. If she went up there and called for an arms embargo on Israel.
Spoke about M4A, or federal jobs guarantee.
Didn't lie and kiss Kamala's ass, that'd be a different story.

I'm sorry to the folks I fundraised off, pushed to phone bank and door knock. To the people I told that AOC, as a Brand New Congress & Justice Dems recruited candidate, would bring change by challenging the status quo.
From Ruckus to opportunists.
I'm beyond disappointed too.

Reasons why its expensive:
- Amtrak currently doesn't have enough rolling stock to meet demand
- You are getting 3 course meals, free coffee, snacks and waters the entire trip
- Amtrak has to largely subsidize the long distance routes, sleepers are a bonus

i looked at taking an Amtrak to a festival in pennsylvania in a few months. all the trips are like 28+ hours long which would be fine if i could take a sleeper roomette. however, it’s nearly $900 each way. $1800 to sleep. insane.

@stvcrtr Also super good move on the pinch runner, the breakdown says it's all about his "read" but that's just smart baseball. He knows he can get back to second in time if it gets caught because the focus will be on the guy running home after the catch - so he just takes a fat lead.
English
This breakdown is incredible. The power. The slide. The double water bottles. What a special game and a wild ending. Both teams deserved to be here.

Had a great meeting yesterday with numerous @CityOfCincy officials, @OKIRCOG, @AmtrakConnects and other stakeholders. @HamiltonOh has been placed on the new proposed 3C+D rail route! What a great win for our city and major step forward to bringing passenger rail to our city! 🚆

Looking at the NYSDOT EIS and thinking why isn't avg. speed improving with more tracks & increase to 90 mph top speed? B/c it's still the same railroad of the NY Central era, same geometry. Amtrak does the same NYC-BUF time today as the Central did. Curvy parts remain curvy...
RAIL Magazine@RAILMag
@forzamilan821 These stretches between Syracuse & Rochester and Amsterdam & Herkimer should illuminate the problem. Even with extra tracks, you can't go any faster than you can now, which isn't even 79 mph in these curvy portions. You need to build an entirely new, straight railroad.

@calicuzns Yeah... like 4 years ago. You guys are SO behind on hating on guitar equipment.

@BlackWolfNews @JaxTrelly @LiamBlank Hahah yeah man remember when all the railroads were run by private groups and they completely abandoned all passenger rail service outside of a few profitable lines? That'll totally work.
English
@JaxTrelly @LiamBlank The common denominator here, is Amtrak. Sell the tracks and trains to a private group, say Bezos or Musk, and watch it flourish.
English
Every flight between cities within this circle is a policy failure.

@sandypsj What exactly does APV mean? Just that it has the pantograph, or does it have traction motors, too? I guess these will be basically permanently mated to the locos?
English
@RAILMag @classicryan17 Definitely not an EMU. It’s actually an “APV” or auxiliary power vehicle. It’s directly connected to the loco and supplies power when it’s under wires
English
@classicryan17 Yeah, I don’t read that as an EMU, since that car is specifically labeled as the APV/Bus. An EMU would have at least half of the coaches with independent power. On the consists without the APV/Bus, I’d wager the pantograph will be on the ALC-42Es, not on the Venture coaches.

I’m most curious what the range on these battery operations is going to be and how they plan to use them on routes that travel beyond the NEC. Will they eliminate the need for engine changes in DC, Albany & New Haven, or will these trains have a Charger & Sprinter at each end?
J@julestrainman
Well…the preliminary design for the Amfleet and ACS-64 replacement just dropped

I think I finally figured out why I have a strong aversion to large pedalboards these days. I suffered a lot of religious trauma in my lifetime and towards the end of my time in the church, big pedalboards were all the rage.

@vanshnook It doesn't have good ridership because the Empire Service has terrible frequency, it's super slow, and its all in all still more expensive then driving by a long shot for most of the areas it serves.

Funny to me how quickly this guy went from being “if Jon Stewart was president of a country” to “best president in Europe” in the span of two days. Incredible amount of respect for how he’s handling an impossible situation.
