Remarks & Notes 
Worms To GCT At The Flyover. On the morning Thursday, August 22, 2024, NTA Metro-North Railroad Train 1831 was "linked" (Danbury speak for turned around) prior to departure for Grand Central Terminal in New York, New York. This allowed for an unusual south facing locomotive, as MNCW 217 (P32AC-DM, 40th Anniversary-NYS/Penn Central heritage) is seen crossing over the Harlem Line before joining it from the New Haven Line at Woodlawn Junction in the Bronx, New York. Under normal circumstances, all locomotive/coach trains to NYC will have the cab car facing NYC and P32 at the end towards the outlying terminal. The Penn Central "PC" logo was pejoratively referred to as "Mating Worms" by contemporaries of the railroad during its 1968-1976 tenure.
