| Title: |
Pushing them in |
| Description: |
When Metro North and CDOT bought new equipment, it was push pull. The engines generally run on the east end of the train, so on the branch, they are physically on the north end, making good lighting a challege. This pair is at Wilton, pushing the train toward Grand Central. The station here is attractive, and had the power been leading with the New Haven unit on the point, it would have been a classic New Haven shot. |
