East New York Posted March 18, 2008 Share #4 Posted March 18, 2008 Nice pics and vid. You should post the photos here on the forum instead of the link. Question: Why does the engine in the first pic say ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric Kreszl Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share #5 Posted March 18, 2008 Nice pics and vid. You should post the photos here on the forum instead of the link. Question: Why does the engine in the first pic say ? The Metro-North locomotive #4901 is a GP40FH-2 locomotive. There is a pool agreement between NJ Transit and Metro-North where the share equipment so that NJ Transit has access to Port Jervis and Spring Valley NY on Metro-North routes in NY state because once the tracks cross the border into NY the tracks are automatically owned by Metro-North.

keysersoze Posted March 21, 2008 Share #6 Posted March 21, 2008 Thank you Eric for sharing the pictures! I was wondering about the 2-car EMU set with car 1330, is it usual for NJT to operate trains that short? I know the "Dinky" in Princeton is operated with 1 car only but it seems quite odd for the main lines starting at Hoboken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually asked myself as well and the employees I asked found it strange as well. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridership isn't so great on lines out of Hoboken that run Arrow IIIs so thats why you'll see 2 car trains, 3 car trains, and 4 car trains. Its weird but it takes getting use to.
