Amtrak ACS-64 class unit 600, named for former Amtrak president David L Gunn, leads Keystone Service train 660 through the fog at Kinzers, Pennsylvania.
3 SP ACs and I imagine some mid-train helpers have a loaded coal train in tow. Soon they will dip into tunnel 3 and then continue the climb towards the summit at Tehachapi. 8.97
Alright Gentlemen, you know what we are here for. Recover that ACS module, and if you have to, shoot anyone who stands in our way.
Amtrak ACS-64 no. 617 is seen leading Northeast Regional train 173 into Newark Penn Station, after crossing Dock Bridge. The train is arriving on Track 4, which is unusual for Amtrak as they more often arrive on Track 3.
Amtrak ACS-64 no. 642 is seen leading train 56(2) across the Susquehanna River Bridge. Early action construction has begun on the replacement for the bridge, which was built in 1906, with two new 2-track bridges, thus doubling the number of tracks crossing the river and increasing train speeds across the bridge. This early action work includes removing the abandoned piers next to the existing bridge, which are remnants of the bridge built by the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore Railroad in 1866.

Amtrak ACS-64 no. 655 is seen leading Northeast Regional train 171(28) into Newark Penn Station. On this day the train was also hauling catenary inspection car 10005 and geometry inspection car 10002, the Corridor Clipper.
I love the blue tones that we experience in the north in December. During this period we have the Polar Night, which means that the sun does not rise above the horizon. Still, there is a period of twilight in the middle of the day that usually produces unique colors.
Acs Sora outdaring the wind and ready to fly! (Aeroporto Bandeirinhas, Conselheiro Lafaiete, Minas Gerais, Brazil).

For only the second time, a pair of ACS-64s, numbers 610 & 602, power Northeast Regional train 159 Southbound over the Delaware River into Morrisville, PA just before sunset.
A shaft of light falls onto Amtrak Northeast Regional train 193, which operates between New York's Pennsylvania Station and Union Station in Washington, DC. One of Amtrak's now-ubiquitous ACS-64s supplies the tractive effort. The train is about 9 miles south of Philadelphia.
