Probably the simplest station tour ever for our weekly tours on the Metro-North. This week i went on the New Haven Line to find myself doing the first transfer on the Metro North and finding myself also back at Stamford! From there i needed to go on another train towards New Canaan and there was where i found out that the actual station is a branch since it has just a single platform and 3 tracks but the other 2 i just dont know whats the use for them unless during peak hours they keep 2 trains there to pull them back to the main track. For both railfanning and exploring around the station it was quite a disappointment actually. With the weather being a factor and no railfanning because trains came and went every hour and well that wasn't good for me. I did however take pictures of the station outside of it and i only stayed there for an hour due to the bad weather and lack of trains. Next week i hope things can turn around the right way as i'll go very far NORTH! I will be going to Poughkeepsie! Cannot wait for next week's tour, i have hope it'll be ten times a better tour! Later on i will post the first run of Route 41 of OMSI 2. Follow my twitter for updates!
