Seeing as it's last stop Friday evening is in GCT, yes, it might be plugged in somewhere in GCT for the weekend.

This is an event for employees of Metro-North, not for the public. So if you show up in the yards looking to get on the equipment and take pictures you may not be warmly welcomed.

We did give the schedule, why do you insist on knowing where train is stored when not scheduled to run???
Whatever place it won't be accesible to public most likely.

The inspection train was seen coupled to two Genesis engines, 210 and 206, at Harmon around 10PM, Sunday, December 12th. It was sitting adjacent to the old fuel pad just north of the station for a while, before being moved to the side of the new shop building.

Why does anyone care about this train? What a ridiculous thread. The employees couldn't care less and it's their train while the foamers are all agog......

I believe Danbury is the next trip for the inspection train, saw the line up with destinations not too long ago. Think they have 4-5 trips before years end (in terms of trips around the property.)

I guess it is safe to assume that this year's WOH red headed stepchild inspection train will be cancelled this year.....
