NJ Transit Catenary Wire Work on the NJCL May 19th & 20th

Hello,

 

 

On the Weekend of May 19th 20th NJ Transit worked on the Catenary wires in South Amboy in Preparation to raise the South Amboy Station on the NJCL to convert it to a High Level Platform. The work is not complete yet but for the first time I was able to photograph the NJ Transit Wire Train in action. The Wires were turned off for 2 full days and NJ Transit ran diesels the whole weekend.

 

Here are some photos,

 

 

 

 

 

 

Enjoy,

 

Eric

 

P.S. The photos were taken with permission from the railroad employees working on the train prior to photographing it.

That 4204 is the workhorse of the system. Perfect timing at the right place at the right time.

Everyone I know is saying that about 4204.

The photos were taken at Rare Interlocking just about a mile south of the South Amboy Station.
