FL 9s
Title:  FL 9s
Description:  One of the benefits of the Penn Central merger was that now FL 9s could run on the other commuter lines out of Grand Central, allowing NYCs various electric engines to be retired. Here a pair of them make their Peekskill stor with a Poughkeepsie train.

Ready for the main line
Title:  Ready for the main line
Description:  Sometimes Id go out early to catch the inbound action, taking advantage of the "engine leading" practice on Metro North at the time. This Danbury train is making its way though Norwalk, and will shortly attain the Shore Line at South Norwalk.
