A few nights ago, Kris and I were driving down Greenfield Road in Lancaster and a westward Keystone <\/em>zipped by overhead with Amtrak ACS-64 642 working at the back of the consist. This is wears the stylish Veterans paint livery. Neat!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yesterday afternoon it was clear and bright, so I went over to Christiana to catch Keystone<\/em> trains on the move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I didn’t wait long, when the rails started singing the approach of train 656 from Harrisburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was led by the cherry red front unique to ACS-64 642. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucky break! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I exposed this burst of images using my Nikon mirrorless Z6-III with 24-70mm lens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
