"NYC Over the Rippowam"
Metro-North's 40th Anniversary "New York Central" heritage-wrapped P32AC-DM, MNCW 211, leads the annual Holiday Train over the Rippowam River along the New Haven Line in Stamford, Connecticut on December 5th, 2023.
Metro-North's Holiday Train consists of two 40th Anniversary heritage-wrapped P32AC-DM locomotives (MNCW 208 in Beach Ball & MNCW 211 in New York Central) sandwiching Metro North's "business" coaches. It usually runs for two to three weeks during the month of December every year with upper management, stopping at all crew sign-up & mechanical locations to hand out small gifts and say thank you to the railroad's employees.
