這是這段火車的車票,是編號Shuttle 494的車次,從New Haven到Hartford,從紐約Penn Station之後,乘客就變很少,火車也變成每站都停的慢車,這段也不例外。本來預計是晚上7點30分發車,不過可能在等其他誤點火車的乘客的緣故,所以delay了40分鐘,到晚上8點10分才發車。
這是這班火車的車頭。
因為是shuttle,這班火車很迷你,只有掛兩節車廂,都是Coachclass(普通車廂)。
火車準時晚上7點30分就停在月台上面了,不過delay到晚上8點10分才發車。拍完照片我就進去車廂找位置。沒什麼旅客所以找位置也很輕鬆愉快。
這是普通車廂的座椅,座椅背後有一個可以拉下來的小桌子可以使用。
座椅下方一樣也有踏腳板,不過跟剛剛那段從DC到New Haven坐的商務車廂比起來,座椅左右跟前方的距離,明顯就是狹窄滿多。不過像我這種東方瘦小體格的旅客,商務車廂的位置是有點過大啦。
普通車廂的窗邊一樣有兩個插座可以使用,一路上都不用擔心狂玩iPhone會玩到沒電的窘境。
這班火車也有附免費的Wifi可以使用,其實前一班從DC到New Haven也有這個服務,只不過很難用,那班太多旅客了,可能大家都在用把頻寬都占掉了,我開我的iPhone 4S的4G網路都比車上的Wifi還不會卡。不過這班shuttle乘客很少,所以車上的免費Wifi用起來就順暢不少。
坐著坐著,外頭的風景慢慢從白日進入黑夜,車廂的燈光也越來越暗。
最後到晚上九點,終於回到了康州Hartford。下面照片是火車停在Hartford Union Station的樣子,也謝謝Charles跟Ling-Fei撥空到車站接我回到宿舍。這四天三夜的DC旅行也要謝謝Washington International Competition的主辦單位Friday Morning Music Club的旅費跟住宿費的贊助,讓我有了一個愉快而難忘的美麗回憶。
