Eric Kreszl Posted November 28, 2007 Share #1 Posted November 28, 2007 Hello Everyone, I have seen this train before in Hoboken. Its called the Aqua Track. http://erickreszl.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=969821 Does anyone have photos of this train in action. I know what its used for. Every time I see this train there is always a GP40FH-2 locomotive hooked up to it. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Posted November 28, 2007 Share #2 Posted November 28, 2007 What does this train do Eric? Something to do with water I'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is an article about it that was in the October 2007 issue of NJT's FYI: http://www.njtransit.com/tm/tm_servlet.srv?hdnPageAction=FYI10To I've seen it a few times at Hoboken and once at Newark Broad Street to go where the leaves really fall hard.

Eric Kreszl Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share #5 Posted November 29, 2007 Hello, Every time I have seen the Aqua Track. A GP40FH-2 locomotive pulls it. NJ Transit has had the Aqua Track train for a couple of years now I believe. I could be wrong though. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebbieprops Posted December 2, 2007 Share #7 Posted December 2, 2007 I never even knew that the Aqua track existed at all. Sounds like a really good idea....according to the article, it certainly has accomplished its purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
