Amtrak Train 137, AMTK 642 (Salutes Our Veterans), Hell Gate Bridge, New York, New York

America's Railroad Salutes Our Veterans. The special paint scheme, notably using red to contrast with the gray instead of the traditional blue, also features a large graphic with the writing "America's Railroad Salutes Our Veterans" and 10 service campaign ribbons from Word War II to the Global War On Terrorism. The railroad shows its dedication to veterans by not only honoring with these kinds of paint schemes but hiring veterans to work on the railroad. On May 24, 2022, it was leading Amtrak Train 137 as it crossed the Hell Gate Bridge. While crossing the length of this span, it will pass through three of New York City's five boroughs in just a few minutes.
