Railfan Pictures of the Week - 03/11/2018
 
Amtrak Northeast Corridor Cornwells Heights Station Bensalem PA March 5 and 6 2018
 

The section of railroad between Philadelphia and Trenton is one of the places where you can see the lunchtime Acela's pass each other, but you have to be in the right place at the right time. I used to have luck at Cornwells Heights, but it looks like the meet is taking place closer to Trenton.

It's March 5 2018. Train 2110 is passing at 12:51 ...

and 2117 passing at 13:02.
On the other end of the speed spectrum are the local freights on the NEC like the light engine of CSAO FJ10, passing at 13:05.
Gave it another shot on March 6, and almost the same results: 2110 at 12:50 ...
and 2117 at 13:01.
And just to make it interesting, a loaded FJ10 at 13:10. Well, better luck next time.
