Somewhere there’s a picture of me and my crew right in front of the old distant signal on the nose of a work engine. It was taken about 30 years ago. Was a newly qualified engineer. Facing the distant signal.

I know that those green containers carry garbage. Are there any complaints from nearby buildings about the smell? That building building behind the train looks as if the windows don't open.

There are no complaints from what I know and that building behind the train has been completed about a month ago or so.

I thought the gauntlet track was the coolest thing at the time....seeing a track within a track. Makes perfect sense the freights get their own track since they're so much heavier than the commuter trains.
@ajsrailfanning4 ай бұрын
Exactly! Plus the freights can go the track limit without worrying about them hitting the sides of the platform.

Congratulations AJ on catching your first heritage unit!! I caught the Conrail HU (NS8098) here in Reading a few times. Way back in the late 90s, I remember traveling to Roselle Park from Brooklyn via subway and NJ Transit. Back then, there were a ton of engines still bearing Conrail livery since the merger was still fresh. Good vibes!!
@ajsrailfanning4 ай бұрын
Thanks a lot! The 8098 is definitely an awesome heritage, great you were able to catch it in Reading! I travel from Queens via the subway and of course NJT! Must’ve been awesome seeing them Conrail engines ruling the lines!
