AMTK 2012
Title:  AMTK 2012
Description:  This was the first time I saw an Acela train, and as you can tell by the poor image quality, I wasn't prepared for the speed!

AMTK 2018
Title:  AMTK 2018
Description:  The second Acela train I've seen, coming out from the direction of Providence station. Dang fence in the way. Too bad there's no GG1's to tear up the NEC anymore.

MBTA 1066
Title:  MBTA 1066
Description:  While we were in the Wal Mart parking lot, we saw this guy creep by (pushing), with what I'd call a "slow approach" signal, but I'm sure it's different with NORAC rules or whatever is used on the NEC.

PW 2007
Title:  PW 2007
Description:  This is actually the rear end of a move in the port. It seems as though some tricky switching maneuvers are made, requiring a third unit at the rear end of the train. For the time being, they are switching coal off the docks at the Port of Providence
