Name this train, because it has a name. The MTA LIRR "Cannonball" is a summer only scheduled train (#2798), and proudly displays its identity on the drumhead on the engine. Its 12 car consist leaves New York's Penn Station at 4:06 PM on Fridays from May 25 through August 31, and for $51.25 you can have a reserved seat to be in the Hamptons in just under 100 minutes. On Friday, July 27, 2018, we catch the eastbound passing through Whitepot Junction in Forest Hills, NY under former Pennsylvania Railroad position lights with the New York City skyline in the background.
