Joe Posted June 2, 2009 Share #1 Posted June 2, 2009 On Sunday my uncle and I went to the Whippany Railway Museum. Many props to the volunteers/staff there for maintaining such a clean museum site. The cars there were kept in excellent condition. ...and as usual, we leave the best for last *cue foam* Thanks 'fer lookin! :cool: (as for whether or not this belongs here...it seems like the most fitting place - NJ railroad history).

Joe Posted June 6, 2009 Author Share #5 Posted June 6, 2009 Thanks guys! Is that a Comet in the background of the third picture? I think so. I'm not up on things that aren't NYCTA/LIRR; I bet Andy or Ken could give you a better answer. There were fliers around the museum advertising caboose rides...I suppose they lash up the 6 or 7 cabooses (cabeese?) to the RS-1 and go for a few foamy trips up and down the spur.

kaback9 Posted June 6, 2009 Share #6 Posted June 6, 2009 Those are Comets. The Morristown and Erie keeps them there. They are used on excursions from the musuem among other things, the M&E also stores alot of private cars there as seen from your photos. Edit: Those are Comet I low doors also known as "sliders". Heres a shot I took not so long ago at the museum of 1: http://kaback9.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=1610777 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
