They always say that the best place to set your watch is at the train station. {giggle}

I was wondering if the bi-levels are ever used on the NE corridor? Is there a height restirction on this line?

[JustinB]

The Bi-Levels are used on the NE corridor. They were designed specifically for the NE corridor, if I recall.

[Frank IBC]

Double-stack freight cars are prohibited as they would not clear the power lines. But the bi-level cars lower and they're OK.

[metsfan]

Some stuff:

They are MLV, not bi-level cars. They are cleared for operation on all routes. The wires are taller in some areas than others, to allow freight train clearance. They have fixed the clock on the tower, a broken linkage caused the hands to slip out of sync with the master timepiece inside, the one facing the trainshed was the accurate one till it was fixed (not sure bout the other sides). Wow, hoboken's yards are empty, what time of day were those photos taken?

Aside from that, lovely photos, please post more in the future!

That is weird, i guess all the trains were parked at the MMC or at the other various yards waiting for the monday AM rush. I literally have never seen it that empty.
