Title: Round Trip from Secaucus Junction to Princeton Junction 6/27 (Local + Express)

The local was kinda rough starting out of stations, but overall, a decent ride:

The express on the other hand, was a different story. These were shot on 6/27/12, the day where there were insane delays. 4646 manages to accelerate the 10 car  MLV set quite nicely out of Princeton, and we reach top speed in about 3 or so minutes. We continue to cruise, encountering an Amtrak NER train twice along the way before running into delays. Originally, I would have shot this all the way into Penn station, but because of the delays, I ran out of memory and had to conserve the last remaining mb's for other clips. What was supposed to take only 50 min ended up taking about an hour and a half.
