Despite challenges, train offer spectacular views, links communities between New York City and Montreal
A full-length heritage dome once operated seasonally on the New York-Montreal Adirondack north of Albany-Rensselaer, N.Y. That began during Amtrak’s 1990s product line era when managers focused on growing ridership and revenue on individual routes. The car was sold off during CEO Richard Anderson’s regime, although views are still terrific through Amfleet II coach windows.
Trains News Wire recently sought to reconnect with the beleaguered train on a recent fact-finding round trip north of Albany to Montreal. The service faces many challenges [see “Adirondack operating indifference …,” News Wire, Oct. 10, 2024], but the uniqueness of its journey is a rare East Coast gem. Here’s a look at what passengers experience.
One thought on “Riding the Adirondack: photo report”
One can dream what the patronage and service would be if the train had equipment like the SBB or regionals in Switzerland. *sigh* The incompetence and neglect of NYS, US and Canadian governments is appalling, added to the obvious disdain of both hosts CN and CPKC. And whatever happened to the supposed preclearance customs and immigration in Montréal promised years ago by Schumer… I suppose that money went to Ukraine or Israel.
