Es waiting for the rush |
Description: |
One of the things I would do in that era was take either the PATH train to Newark, which yielded a good view of the storage tracks for the commuter trains, or ride the ex DLW out of Hoboken to Newark, which had a view of the engine tracks at Kearny. This day, it was a PATH trip. Going through Harrison, there was this pair of Es on a train that would go to Bay Head during the evening rush |

NJT E8A #4285 - New Jersey Transit |
Description: |
Originally built as NYC E8A 4080 in August of 1953, the loco survived the NYC/PC collapse and wound up in commuter service for the New Jersey Transit. After that service was over, the loco ended up back in the NYC lightning color scheme with RPCX #4080 as its number as of 2015 based on a photo in the RRPA database.. Unfortunately,no photographer, location or exact day in 1981 was given for the photo. With help from Steve Coraggio & Tom Beckett (see comments below), the location is now identified as South Amboy, NJ. Thanks guys for your help!!! |

NJT E8A #4285 - New Jersey Transit |
Description: |
Here's another view of former NYC E8A #4080 serving in commuter service for the New Jersey Transit. According to photos in the RRPA database, this loco went on to a few other rosters and as late as 2015, it was back in the former NYC lighning stripe paint scheme while wearing the number RPCX #4080. Unfortunately,no photographer, location or exact day in 1981 was given for the photo. With help from Steve Coraggio & Tom Beckett (see comments below), the location is now identified as South Amboy, NJ. Thanks guys for your help!!! |
