Stamford?

 

[jersey42]

It does not look like Stamford to me. How about Charlotte, NC?

You are correct, it is Charlotte. Your turn.

 

[jersey42]

I thought it was Charlotte. Plus, Stamford has no baggage service.

Here is a fairly recent photo with some built in clues to help narrow it down. There is at least one person who should get this one quickly.

Rutland, VT..

 

[jersey42]

Rutland is correct!

The north bound train is parked there on a Sunday afternoon in July. The southbound train is scheduled to depart at 5:05 pm.

You are up.

 

[SubwayNut]

That is correct! This picture was taken in August of 2010, while I was making my way to from L.A. to Sacramento after my first flight, when the Flyaway bus hit bad traffic and I missed my Surfliner/4785 /Capitol Corridoor trip and had to rebook as 5811/711/3811.

Haven't followed this thread in a couple days. I took the same photo by day in Bakersfield, knew the logo looked familiar but couldn't place it.

 

[SubwayNut]

Acela150, its your turn to post a photo!

 

[Acela150]

So sorry I forgot to post a photo... I seem to forget this topic..

Anyway, someone can post in my place.

Would it be ok if I post a video taken at a station for the game? I'm working on getting it together now and would have it up be later this evening.

Sure - I don't think we have had a video yet.

 

[Swadian Hardcore]

Just make sure your video dosen't reveal too much! A video could give it away easily if you accidently leave in the station sign.

 

[FreeskierInVT]

Alright, I looked through my video and I didn't catch anything too revealing. It shouldn't be too hard though.

Low-level platforms on the NEC with a red station building. This should be no problem for our Northeastern folks. Haven't been there in while myself.

I figured it wouldn't be too hard

I mean, I don't know what it is off the top of my head because I haven't been there a while, but the others should get it. Everyone has their specialties.

Sorry folks, now I'll quite babbling on this thread.

 

[AmtrakBlue]

Must be KIN - the Acela didn't stop there. :giggle:

 

[Notelvis]

Aberdeen, MD?

 

[Ryan]

Not ABE, that's constant tension catenary, which puts it up north. Curved platform, and what looks like maybe a grade crossing behind the Acela.

That'd make it New London, IIRC.

New London is correct!

I was originally going to do a station in Vermont that I had a video from, but two trains at once seemed more interesting.

Nice video. thanks for posting it.

 

[Ryan]

Agreed, nice video.

Next up:

The URL gives it away, so don't cheat!

 

[Acela150]

I cheated. Never thought that the station looked like that.

 

[Swadian Hardcore]

Sorry, I couldn't resist the temptation to cheat! I know what it is, but I won't say.
