Amtrak #700, Albany-Rensselaer, NY, USA, 1994

Amtrak #700, Albany-Rensselaer, NY, USA, 1994
This was the first look I ever got at a G.E. Genesis P32, in Albany-Rensselear on my way back from Washington, DC (after I had had my first-ever train ride at over 90 m.p.h.). Some people have said that this shot is blurry. That's because the camera was a point-and-shoot, and the scan wasn't top-notch either. Oh well... In those days, the P32s didn't work all the way to Buffalo and Niagara Falls as they do now, but were cut off at Albany-Rensselaer just as the old FL9s had been (and still were when I took this). We had an F40PH take us the rest of the way home, and that was my second-fastest-ever trip on a train as of then!!!
