Eastern Railroad Discussion > NJ Transit "Shop" Train

Just about every Sunday, New Jersey Transit runs a train out of the Meadows Maintenance Complex in Kearny, N.J. South down to Morrisville, Pa. with cars and engines going back into service after inspections and repairs.

I've really enjoyed waiting for it with the variety it carries and today's was a good one. 

GP40PH-2 4106 (ex-CNJ) has a pair of Comet cars, three bi-levels and a pair of ALP-46's trailing thru Metuchen, N.J. at 12:14 PM.

And going thru Lincoln interlocking.

The PRR ALP-46 was in Kearny all weekend and I hoped it would be on this move, but alas, it wasn't.

Very nice.  The red flag on the last car or locomotive has been a tradition forever.

Very cool catch, especially with the former CNJ engine leading.  I've seen a the westbound shop move on a Monday at times.  Always neat to see what's on it. 
 

Neat stuff!!
