Most likely on the 238th street overpass.

I'm stuck on a sandbar on Cape Cod, and I couldn't be happier!!!

Awesome shot Fred.

Question: Will the M8s be running this weekend?, if anyone knows.

Yesterday 9100/101 was sitting by itself at MO during evenig rush.
I believe that is one of 3 pairs that went to Kawasaki in Yonkers for mods and pantograph damage.

If Conductors are in charge, why are they promoted to be Engineer???

I paused the video as the last car was going by and it looked no other like 9103 and since there were only six cars in repair in Yonkers, it seems 9100-9105 are back out testing again
