| Railfan Pictures of the Week - 8/2/2026 |
| March 16 2026 I took advantage of a trip into Philadelphia to hang out at Penn Park and watch action on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor just south of 30th Street Station. Although I wasn't there long, I got what I came for: some shots of the former HHP-8 converted to cab car test train. Leading into 30th Street at the end of a run to Washington DC and back was AMTK 9751. He snuck up on me as he wasn't showing up on the tracking app so I only got a going away view. |
 |
| Providing propulsion was ACS-64 650 sandwiched between a pair of Amfleets, one cafe car 43395 in Amtrak Regional Phase VI scheme and the other coach 82551 in Phase VII scheme. |
 |
| Trailing was former HHP-8 now cab car AMTK 9752. |
 |
 |
| Just before I had to catch my ride, I got shots of something that is becoming a rarity: an original Acela set with power car AMTK 2010 leading ... |
 |
| and power car AMTK 2015 trailing. |
