On the night of December 8th, 2024, an NHS crew brings the east pair of Metro-North Railroad's "Holiday Lights Train" (9261/9260) back to rest of the consist after an hour of repairs at the "M2" shop in New Haven Yard. The Holiday Lights Train is a specially decorated, 8-car Kawasaki M8 consist operating on all electrified portions of the Harlem, New Haven, and Hudson Lines throughout the remainder of the holiday season.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
