The yard next to #Philadelphia, PA, 🇺🇸 Penn Station is always a good place to spot some new #Amtrak trains being made ready for service. Today I saw a few #Acela trainsets for high-speed workings along the Northeast Corridor, plus some #Cascades sets for future services in the Pacific Northwest.

Just pulling the speed chart I recorded on this trip, south of Providence. It's quite interesting to see the train controls taking the speed on an exponential response before settling to the desired speed of 160 mph!

Acela Nextgen was a smooth ride overall. The two short 160 mph sprints before and after Providence, RI were a nice experience. Connecticut is pretty but horribly slow.

Going through the pictures taken last October, when travelling on board the new #Amtrak 🇺🇸 #NextGenAcela high-speed train on the “Northeast Corridor” to New York. This #Alstom #Acela is a close relative to the future French #TGV, and it’s actually quite stylish. Top speed was above 250 kph.

Ah, trains again. This is from November 15, 2025. The Avelia Liberty (I nickname it Princess Avelia) went into service in August, when I booked a ticket in November just so that it's cheaper. I just returned from a conference at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, and transferred from the LIRR to Princess Avelia to go to Providence, where I had never been. For all the complaints about Avelia, I didn't have any problem with the train itself this time, but did have problems with Connecticut delays. #nyc #pennstation #amtrak #acela #highspeedrail #trains #selfportrait #darktable
