Description
Late on a December afternoon, Amtrak locomotive No. 716, a GE Genesis type P32AC-DM powers this northbound Empire Service train as it crosses the Spuyten Duyvil swing bridge, where the Spuyten Duyvil meets the broad Hudson River.
It has come up the west side of Manhattan from New York’s Penn Station on the “Empire Connection,” and after crossing the bridge, it will merge onto the Hudson Line of the Metro-North Railroad, affording its passengers some magnificent vistas along the Hudson's valley.
The dual-mode locomotives use third-rail DC power to access Penn Station.
The handsome livery also includes an Empire Service logo shield along the Amtrak stripes just aft of locomotive cab.
