On-Board NJT Port Jervis Line Train #59 (Metro-North Express) from Hoboken, NJ to Port Jervis, NY

Taken: August 01, 2019 Rolling stock: Alstom PL42AC Locomotive #4001 leading the charge, 2 Metro-North Alstom Comet V trailers, and a Metro-North Comet V Cab Car #6710 trailing. ATTENTION: This is, by far, the longest on-board video I have ever done and I don't even know if I will film another one that will top the length of this one. Nonetheless, I hope y'all enjoy! This line has two records of its own since it has the longest bridge (Moodna Viaduct separating Harriman and Salisbury Mills-Cornwall), longest tunnel (Otisville Tunnel separating Otisville and Port Jervis), and longest distance and time between two terminals (Hoboken to Port Jervis at 88 miles and 2 hours 5 minutes). A year ago, I had planned on riding Train 59 all the way to Port Jervis, however, I found out that the train was cancelled the day I was scheduled to go and wanted to wait until the summer so that it wouldn't be too dark by the time I arrived at Port Jervis (at 8:20 pm). I wanted to do this video and take this trip because no one else did and because it was a 48-mile stretch which lasted for almost an hour. In addition, I kinda wanted to film the Moodna Viaduct and the Otisville Tunnel partially. As usual, this set is led by a PL42AC, however, there are usually 5-6 NJT Comet V cars attached to it. Instead, there are three Metro-North Comet V cars, which I found pretty interesting, but not surprising since it was on Track 1, the shortest track in the terminal. I also found out that this train was supposed to be a 5 car consist, but we ended up with three instead. The stops that were skipped were Kingsland, Lyndhurst, Delawanna, Passaic, Clifton, Paterson, Hawthorne, Glen Rock-Main, Ridgewood, Ho-Ho-Kus, Waldwick, Allendale, Ramsey, Ramsey Route 17, Mahwah, Suffern, (Metro-North territory) Sloatsburg, and Tuxedo. I found it interesting how the conductor stated "No more stops in New Jersey," which was something I wanted to hear for the longest and this ride felt like I was on an airplane since the conductor announced the train number, destination, frequency of stops, bumpy-ass tracks north of Suffern, smell of the diesel from the locomotive coming inside (kinda like airplane fuel), etc. I apologize for not showing portions of certain stops, especially Ridgewood (I wanted to film the outbound platform), but I was unable to because the train was packed. This is one of the two only trains that make these eight stops (Hoboken Terminal, Secaucus Junction, Harriman, Salisbury Mills-Cornwall, Campbell Hall, Middletown-Town of Wallkill, Otisville, and Port Jervis). The other one is Train #50, the express train to Hoboken via the Main Line. Lastly, I wanted to mention how the conductor was most likely trying to take pictures of me at the 1:54:30 portion of the video since he accidentally used his flash and quickly hid his phone from me. It's probably because he was unfamiliar with it, I guess. If you guys want to see what he looks like, check out 2:15. The guy looks like a slightly fatter version of Larry Wheels. As said in the end of the video, I will discuss about this conductor (and maybe the trip as a whole) in another video. Nonetheless, I hope you guys enjoyed and as always, drop a like, comment, subscribe, and share this video! Enjoy! :D
