CNJ Sandwich |
| Description: |
A pair of ex-CNJ GP40Ps bookend a 3-car train that is currently without a cab car. This is one of four trains currently in operation like this on the Hoboken Division alone due to a backlog of cab cars OOS for PTC fitting and testing. This small train is eastbound out of the Meadowlands Sports Complex as part of a weekday mid-day outage on the Pascack Valley Line for a series of crossing replacement projects. During this outage the Sport Line is being used as a place to stage the mid-day turns without having to stack up trains on main tracks at Secaucus after making bus connections. |

The Scoot at Wesmont |
| Description: |
The "Bayonne Scoot" rounds the curve at Wesmont Station with a 3-car train bookended by ex-CNJ GP40Ps (CNJ 3683 and CNJ 3672). This is the 4108's first day in passenger service since July 24th, 2014. It has since been "overhauled" and converted into a non-revenue locomotive. Today it is filling in as a cab car along with four of its sisters on other trains across the Hoboken Division. The train is passing the mostly empty and quiet grounds of the former Farmland Dairy facility. |

Passenger and Industrial |
| Description: |
An eastbound Bergen County Line local to Hoboken arrives at Wesmont Station rounding the curve at Curtis Wright. The train is lead by one of 13 ex-CNJ GP40Ps (one of six sets like this on the Hoboken Division). The train passes through the industrial landscape of Wallington and Wood-Ridge. This area was at one point one of North Jersey's industrial strongholds with the massive Curtis Wright complex being one of the major manufacturing sites for the war effort during the second World War. Today much of these industrial properties have either been converted to warehouses or have been cleared to make way for retail and townhouses. The Farmland Dairy facility to the left of the scene was one of the more recent facilities to close its doors in December of 2013 resulting in the loss of over 300 North Jersey jobs. What the future holds in store for the vast property is uncertain but it wouldn't come as a surprise to learn of expanded retail and residential construction. |

Off Goes the Santa Train |
| Description: |
The annual "Railmen for Children" Santa Train departs Hoboken for Newark, The Oranges, Denville and Montclair with a trainload of children from schools all across the area. The children aboard this train are treated with gifts, music, food and a visit from Santa. The entire trip is made possible by the employee operated Railmen for Children charity and cooperation by NJ Transit who has been providing a train to the event every year since 1983. The equipment used and the people involved have changed over the years but one thing remains the same: The Santa Drumhead. This hand-painted drumhead has been affixed to the cab car of every Railmen for Children Santa Train since the very beginning and will continue to make its annual appearance for many years to come! |

On a warm Saturday afternoon, February 20, 2016 one of Amtraks last three remaining AEM7-ACs was tasked with leading "The Crescent" from New York to Washington. The train is seen here biting into the S-curves at Elizabeth with the 8-car New Orleans-bound train in tow. It was certainly one of the more photographed trains on the Northeast Corridor in some time as railfans try to document these veteran "toasters" in their final months of service. |
