AMTK 700 (date is a wild guess)
Title:  AMTK 700 (date is a wild guess)
Description:  This was on a long-distance trip on Amtrak Utica-Washington, during the locomotive change at Rensselaer, as in those days they were still using F40PH diesels west of Albany-Rensselaer, thus necessitating the change to a Genesis P32 (or in those days, maybe an FL9) at Rensselaer.

Amtrak Train #284 Arrival
Title:  Amtrak Train #284 Arrival
Description:  Amtrak saved the day for me when I had to get my flight to Greece. The whole of the Northeastern U.S., with the exception of New York City and the Tri-State area, was inundated by blizzards, and the blizzards continued for days, so it was clear that my flight to Newark was going to be cancelled before I even got there. Amtrak, while late as usual, was also running as usual...in the blizzard, making the choice clear. Here Amtrak #707 works train #284, the "Mohawk," to NY Penn at Syracuse.

AMTK 714
Title:  AMTK 714
Description:  The date on this is just a wild guess that probably is just as wildly inaccurate. In any case, here's one of my favorite all-time shots on the Water Level Route, with Amtrak leading an Empire Service train out of the notorious Gulf Curve!! I've always though this was quite dramatic, even if some serious photographers consider it boring.
