Engine change at South Amboy, NJ.         
This train is headed for Bay Head, NJ. on the NY & LB. The GG-1 that delivered the train fron Penn Station has cut off and is returning to the So. Amboy Engine Terminal. Two E-8's will take the train through non electrified territory and return north later. Note the Conductor and Engineer on the left conferring about the trip they are going to take down the Jersey Shore (today it's called a job briefing). A ride on the old NY & LB was truly a throwback to yesterday. Date of this photo is approximate but it is definetly pre Conrail.
