Mid May to June end of spring railfaning 2025. FT AMTK 9700 CN CSX EMD BNSF 25th. RF&P NJT PC Arrows

This channel and video is PG rated since 8-4-25. As the peak of spring hits in May. I visited my pals at the PU Tower for National Train Day. As always as I arrive 28X comes first. Then two more westbound before I help clean up at the Tower. I was a nice day but bit windy. Saw a few folks at the PU Tower and some over at the PRRHS. Wrapping up the National Train day weekend on Mother's Day. I headed to Princeton Jct for Amtrak 42 with a P42 C yes your heard me right. P42C 9700 trailing. I been wanted to catch it as it was going to NY and then Albany. At the Same time two trains was coming through the CSX Trenton line at West Trenton for M404 CN DUO with CWR and M409 with all EMD. Follow by a late I104. The next Saturday I got word that 26X have the BNSF 25TH annverrsey unit trailing. With barely of Sunlight left in mid part of May. I headed up to Stanton Station Rd in Readington Twps, NJ for it. It was going to wait in the siding at CP 53-51. After a brief drive. I retook the 26X prior to 23G coming by a trackside. While I was on side of the road. It was okay. The 26X crew were nice. After the 23G passed by. 26X lift off from CP 51 with the NS DC and BNSF AC GEVOs winds up. After the Memioral Day weekend. Word was given another CWR train was coming down. This time with a CSX EMD leading. SD40-2 would've been better. A Big Mac (MACE rebuilt) is good enough for me as it rolls by at West Trenton. Cell phone ground shot started at first due to the Canon G30 was slight out of forces until later at the time of editing it. It's whatever still got it. June opens up with another MAC duo on the CSAO Lehigh line. This time I headed to Piscataway for it. With some NS and CSX with huge parade of eastbounds. A CSX B118 all BNSF pumpkins empty oil. A 22X with a NC P5. A 24X with a Dash 9 leader still alive at the time of filming it with Narrow Font K5LA and the NS 269 with P5 Mix cast. After waiting for it until noon. The coal train finally came. Good Flarred and non flarred duo with a AC44CM rebuilt rear DPU. Sounds nice. The differance of MACE flarred and non flarred Rebuilt the style type of radiators. I decided to head to CP Mead and it paid off. After waiting for a M404 with a High and wide which I didn't film it you can see it in my shorts if its up. The C733 proceeds west out of siding at CP Mead. The roar of the 710 prime moves in notch 8. I waited for NS 974 the Safety train with NS 9-1-1 Honoring first Responders leading however it was held up in Bethlehem. I waited for a empty coal train as well. However it didn't work out good due to traffic down at CP Summit and stuff. I return to Piscataway for two trains. 23G which not on here see my shorts for it. However CSX M301 had two GE AC44CM rebuilts and a GP unit trailing third out before heading home. Father's Day Sunday comes with one more catch back to Princeton Jct I go. After catch a NJT and Amtrak NE Regional went south even though westbound. Then waited on one Aecla passed by which I caught many of it before Amtrak retire the units. NJT Arrows PC NJ DOT Heritage units came on track two due to Amtrak track work on track one with the Blue platform gondoas being uses. I went to track four platform and filmed it coming in and out. Nice way to close the spring season out. Here comes summer. Will see what I do. Subscribe to the channel, like the video, make sure you get the bell on that way you get notify the next upload I post.
