Nostalgia & History > EL C907 at Ridgewood Jct, NJDate: 09/14/20 17:10 EL C907 at Ridgewood Jct, NJ Author: skyview EL C907, and ex DL&W caboose, at Ridgewood Jct, NJ (with WJ tower seen just ahead of the locomotives), March of 1974. Wish I had shot the entire caboose but thought this interesting enough to post.

Thanks for the photo post. ALLEN Date: 09/14/20 18:28 Re: EL C907 at Ridgewood Jct, NJ Author: RayH Coming up the Main Line from Paterson.

Up until 2012 or so, C907 was part of the Casey Jones restaurant at Long Branch NJ. The restaurant buiding was demolished in 2018? Don't know what happened to the caboose after the restaurant closed, though. https://eatingnewjersey.net/2018/06/24/restaurants-we-miss-casey-jones-long-branch-nj/ https://railroad.net/viewtopic.php?f=127&t=67609 Date: 09/15/20 22:06 Re: EL C907 at Ridgewood Jct, NJ Author: pdt Looks like it could be the Ordinary. It would leave croxton and go up the main Line , doing pickups and setouts along the way up to Port Jervis.
