Description
The Hudson Division is one of the most scenic and interesting sections of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor.
Running north to south from Penn Station in New York City toAlbany-Rensselaer, it follows the course of the Hudson River and offersbeautiful vistas, charming old railway stations, and the specialcharacter of the river itself.
However, it's not just the scenic landscapes that attract railfans tothis area. In 1992, when Pentrex documented the line with two videoreleases, the Hudson Division was FL-9 country.
We'll take you aboard one of these classic diesels and also treat youto a cab ride on a Turbo Train. Get ready for an exciting tour of theHudson Division!
