Eastern Railroad Discussion > Forgot to finish my Safari last year:)Date: 01/22/20 22:37 Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X 9-6-19 We started the morning off at Danbury CT at the RR museum. We had a few minutes to kill before they opened. We had Dunkin Donuts across the street and came back. Still not open. Commuter train pulled up and shoved back. They let some fence company in to fix the fence. We followed a few minutes later and made a quick pass around before getting caught.

   Date: 01/22/20 22:44 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X I promised my mom the Statue of Liberty. We headed to NJ thinking it would be easier to access. It was. We came in at Bayonne. Found the shortline only by accident. Then Google maps didn't show the road across the yard missing. But there was a SD40-2.
Then back out on the main road we headed to the Statue. Found this unit. What was it and what is it now?    Date: 01/22/20 22:46 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X The CNJ depot. And the statue. We were there ahead of the front preceding Hurricane Dorian

   Date: 01/22/20 22:49 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X Neat visit.
   Date: 01/22/20 22:51 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X And then we headed over to the Morristown and Erie. And I forgot to write down this town name. Help?
   Date: 01/22/20 22:53 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X M&E shops, and the added "shops". They were contracted to add PTC to locomotives. They had GP40s inside from NJT.
   Date: 01/22/20 22:55 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X Then over to Boonton NJ.
Hickory Creek The recent M&E unit.    Date: 01/22/20 22:57 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X The reason for the visit....The "green" E unit.
And what would be a surprise for me. The GG1s.    Date: 01/22/20 22:59 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: SD45X And some E units as well. It was dark, so we didn't stay long. We headed out for a hotel.
 Date: 01/23/20 05:39 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: refarkas Thanks for sharing these. What a great set of photos. The less-than-sunny weather worked to your advantage.
I'm sitting here with a big grin. Your photo of CN 6786 made me check my old images. She was the first MLW FPA-4 I ever photographed. That was in London, Ontario on November 30, 1968 (over fifty years ago)!. Bob Date: 01/23/20 09:27 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: cjvrr Morristown & Erie shops are in the Town of Morristown, NJ.
I work just up the road from there. Date: 01/23/20 10:27 Re: Forgot to finish my Safari last year:) Author: krm152 What a great museum series!
