Pennsy's "Nellie Bly"
Title:  Pennsy's "Nellie Bly"
Description:  This is most likely PRR train #1077, the "Nellie Bly" which ran from New York to Atlantic City in 2 hrs and 45 min and would have received an engine change here from a GG1 to the K4s.

The new pilot and relocated headlight are part of post war modernization that CKF said made it an example of "What a good looking locomotive should not look like

PRR Bordentown Branch train #2372
Title:  PRR Bordentown Branch train #2372
Description:  An E6s Atlantic sits in the station with a Bordentown Branch train that has just arrived from Camden. Behind her is a P70 coach. Today this service is run with light-rail DMUs on the New Jersey Transit River Line. The E6s was built circa 1914 and was the Standard Railroad of the World's attempt to build an extremely powerful and yet light passenger engine. While these units were common on the Camden to Trenton trains, they were eventually replaced by gas-electric cars.

Empty coal from South Amboy
Title:  Empty coal from South Amboy
Description:  A boxcab P5a motor grinds west with what appears to be empty ore hoppers (probably coming from South Amboy and heading to PA coal fields). When first built in 1933, the P5a was to be an electric K4, but they were soon demoted to freight service (with the arrival of the P5am and then the GG1). Crews did not like the unsafe cab position and they rode very rough. They were built by Altoona, Baldwin, and Lima. They lasted in performing freight duty until the early 1960s when they were replaced by new GE E44s.

Description:  A merchandise freight heads east under the footbridge in Trenton pulled by what H10s 2-8-0 Consolidation is likely bound to Jersey City.
