| Description: |
NJTR 4300 sits at the back of the Dover storage yard with one of the new ALP-46 electrics delivered earlier this year. The Geep was built in 1968 as Penn Central 3189 and was upgraded to GP40-2 standards by Conrail's Juniata Shops in 1995 as part of a trade involving NJ Transit's disposal of the ex-EL U34CH locomotives. |

Junk Salad |
| Description: |
One of NJ Transit's four GP40-2s rumbles under the skylit sheds at Newark Penn Station on Track A. The 49-year old work horse was added to the lead of Train #5416 at Raritan Yard after a mechanical failure rendered the cab car inoperable. The mixed trainset is an odd one these days as much more care has gone into keeping Comet Vs all together out of Hoboken with Comet IIM and Comet IV coaches being used primarily on the Newark division. |

Pressed Into Passenger |
| Description: |
As NJ Transit struggles to comply with the federally mandated Positive Train Control requirements many cab cars have become unavailable as they are retrofitted with the new PTC systems. In order to maintain service locomotives have been acting as "cab cars" on the east ends of train all across the system. Sometimes those engines used are those normally reserved for non-revenue work trains such as seen here. Eastbound Train #1204 is seen here just after crossing the Hackensack River at Upper Hack drawbridge and was lead by one of four GP40-2s on the NJ Transit roster. These engines are usually assigned as work and protect power to outlying terminals such as Dover, Long Branch and Morrisville and have rarely been used to power scheduled revenue passenger trains. |
