A very late D&H Train 417, the three times a week freight from Fresh Pond Yard in Queens to Kenwood Yard in Albany, blows the doors off of Metro North Train 783, as it hustles through Scarborough Station.  Tonight's consist is 3 SD40-2's with 5672 on the point, 5671 in the middle, and 5690 trailing, with a 50 car mixed freight, made up primarily of empty stone cars.  For one railfan, not myself, this was a failed shot, due to Train 783 coming into the shot.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The video was taken at 8:56PM on June 30th, 2008.
