Rondout Railfanning: Metra and Amtrak Edition

Rondout Railfanning: Metra and Amtrak Edition

Recorded 1/20/17

I never thought I would like Rondout that much so I decided to return on a weekday instead. However, it wasn’t what I expected. First of all, the fog was getting worse as the day went on. It was getting worse to the point where I couldn’t see the signals. But it doesn’t stop there. Unfortunately this video from Rondout is called the “Metra and Amtrak Edition” because that is basically all I caught. Unfortunately, there is NOT a single freight train that I caught from Rondout. I’m guessing I either missed a few in the morning or something was going on. Anyways, if you love Metra trains and Amtrak trains, enjoy the hornshows from these commuter trains.
