From what I know there are only two F40PH-2CAT locomotives left in service for New Jersey transit it’s great that they’re still in service the wind of their headend power generator Is music to my ears
This is a questing that has been driving me crazy for the past few years: How is the Diesel engine reving if the Cab car is obviously pulling it? Is the diesel pushing the train backwards without any humans inside of the diesel train?
Pretty sure it's to diversify each fleet. Morris & Essex line tends to be short staffed when it comes to working on the tracks due to power issues especially when departing Denville as it happened this morning when i was waiting at Maplewood for the morning train.

These trains could be terminating at either location. The Diesels you see in this video are originating/terminating at Hoboken. The Arrow II EMUs are, for electrical reasons also originating/terminating at Hoboken. The ALP-45DP/ALP-46 trains are likely originating/terminating at Penn Station.
Still amazes me how diverse the NJT fleet is compared to the nearby commuter railroads
Yeah. LIRR is not diverse at all
True
Used to travel this line on the Erie Lackawanna electrics in the '70's.
Thanks for the memories.
👍
Its nice to see old freight locomotives get another lease on life

I live near the Atlantic City Line, so this was very interesting to watch. Thanks.
NJT Morristown Line connects with the Northeast Corridor at SWIFT INTERLOCKING.
I thought they only had 4119 on revenue runs? Are they running both (4119 and 4120) now?
they've been running both for the past two years lmao
That is part of the heritage fleet. Well I think it should be anyway
This is Incredible ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Very cool do ya think you can do Maplewood nj next week

The cab car doesn’t pull or push anything; it just controls the diesel.
@@FanRailer Ohhhhh Now I finally know why the Diesel engine is reving when the cab car is pulling it
First and nice stuff you've seen
I thought they got rid of them PL42 or whatever the model is...
not for a while longer
Do you know why NJT is using so much diesel power on the Morris & Essex?

Does this train terminate at Penn Station NY or Hoboken?
