Throwback
Amtrak ACS-64 no. 662 (Siemens, 2012-2016) with train 161(21) passes over Astoria-Ditmars Blvd subway station on a sunny February afternoon. This scene is reminiscent of what could have been seen decades ago, with R46 cars built by Pullman-Standard from 1975-1978, Amfleet cars built in 1975, and AEM-7 locomotives built in 1978 wearing Phase III paint that debuted in 1976! The details are, of course, slightly different, with the ACS-64 locomotive, the Train Sim 2 ad, and the details of the station, which has recently undergone renovation.
