In the House
Title:  In the House
Description:  Late at night in Hoboken Terminal and the cool air is filled with the sounds of two 49-year old veterans rumbling away under the sheds of the Lackawanna Railroad's 110-year old waterfront terminal. These two locomotives are part of a fleet of 13 GP40Ps that were ordered for the Central Railroad of New Jersey and have been providing passenger service in the Garden State since October of 1968 under the banners of three different operators. The entire fleet has seen two major rebuilds over their long careers with some recently receiving their third.

Kingsland Passengers
Title:  Kingsland Passengers
Description:  A morning that started sunny and somewhat warm quickly turned cloudy and chilly. Passengers waiting to escape the cold air watch as a 49-year old ex-CNJ GP40P leads their train into the station. The rail in the platform below are some of the remains of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western's Kingsland Wye. At one point these old buried rails routinely saw local freight trains and shop moves from the Kingsland Car Shops run across the platform. Trash trains to North Arlington in the '80s to the early '90s were the last regular run through traffic to polish these old strings of steel. Today the track is mostly forgotten except for occasional MoW equipment storage.

Passenger and Industrial
Title:  Passenger and Industrial
Description:  An eastbound Bergen County Line local to Hoboken arrives at Wesmont Station rounding the curve at Curtis Wright. The train is lead by one of 13 ex-CNJ GP40Ps (one of six sets like this on the Hoboken Division). The train passes through the industrial landscape of Wallington and Wood-Ridge. This area was at one point one of North Jersey's industrial strongholds with the massive Curtis Wright complex being one of the major manufacturing sites for the war effort during the second World War. Today much of these industrial properties have either been converted to warehouses or have been cleared to make way for retail and townhouses. The Farmland Dairy facility to the left of the scene was one of the more recent facilities to close its doors in December of 2013 resulting in the loss of over 300 North Jersey jobs. What the future holds in store for the vast property is uncertain but it wouldn't come as a surprise to learn of expanded retail and residential construction.

The Scoot at Wesmont
Title:  The Scoot at Wesmont
Description:  The "Bayonne Scoot" rounds the curve at Wesmont Station with a 3-car train bookended by ex-CNJ GP40Ps (CNJ 3683 and CNJ 3672). This is the 4108's first day in passenger service since July 24th, 2014. It has since been "overhauled" and converted into a non-revenue locomotive. Today it is filling in as a cab car along with four of its sisters on other trains across the Hoboken Division. The train is passing the mostly empty and quiet grounds of the former Farmland Dairy facility.

CNJ Sandwich
Title:  CNJ Sandwich
Description:  A pair of ex-CNJ GP40Ps bookend a 3-car train that is currently without a cab car. This is one of four trains currently in operation like this on the Hoboken Division alone due to a backlog of cab cars OOS for PTC fitting and testing. This small train is eastbound out of the Meadowlands Sports Complex as part of a weekday mid-day outage on the Pascack Valley Line for a series of crossing replacement projects. During this outage the Sport Line is being used as a place to stage the mid-day turns without having to stack up trains on main tracks at Secaucus after making bus connections.

The Retirement Club
Title:  The Retirement Club
Description:  Under a milky morning sky a handful of NJ Transit's remaining Arrow III MUs layover in Hoboken's Pullman Yard for the weekend. One active set rolls by on 6 Main as it closes in on the end of its first round trip to Montclair for the day. It has been recently publicly announced that NJ Transit will be purchasing more ALP45 dual-modes locomotives, MultiLevel coaches and EMUs that will most likely strike the final nail in the coffin for these 40-year old veterans.

Work With Pride
Title:  Work With Pride
Description:  One of NJ Transit's two AquaTrain sets is parked in Hoboken's Engine House this weekend to avoid freezing in the tank cars and the water lines that run between them. The AquaTrain is essentially a gigantic pressure washer mounted on a flat car that shoots highly pressurized water at the head of the rail to remove leaf oils in an effort to reduce wheel slip during the autumn months.
