Complete ride on NJT

[@DavidSteiner-vr4do]

Great job and I love it👍

[@MimicoBungalow]

I'd love to take that trip... Definitely worth the trip to Jersey go to Philadelphia on this! We've got lots of scenic railroads here in Southern Ontario. The trip from Toronto to Montreal is a nice trip along the north shore of lake Ontario - cheers 👍 James in Toronto

[@3985uprr]

Done that ride a lot

[@jackcraig4268]

Thanks for posting; I've also enjoyed your SEPTA and LIRR trips. Back in 1960 I took the PRSL to Wildwood from 30th Street. On the way down it was in a coach consist pulled by a Baldwin AS-16 road Switcher; on the return it was in an RDC. This did end in 1969 when PATCO was built, when it became a 2-seat shuttle ride from Lindenwold to the shore points.......

Great job👍 and I love it

[@howardsontz983]

Loved it. Thanks.

[@catfromcatoonsart]

Such a beautiful video! I’ve always heard this train go by since my childhood! It’s so heartwarming to see the full ride of the Atlantic City line! I just filmed a train arriving and departing from the Atco station the other day. However, I have never been on these trains.

[@nelsonbrandt7847]

I lived in Hamilton and used to take the train frequently. Brings back great memories; thanks for posting!

A great video of the Atlantic City line of NJ Transit. I used to live in Elwood, NJ, remember the PRSL trains, various stations it served. Taking the train from Philadelphia to Atlantic City & black to Philadelphia is a better way of traveling between the 2 cities, the same with going to & from, Boston, New York City,Newark,NJ, Baltimore, Washington, DC, Richmond, Newport News & Norfolk, VA. It beats driving on the NorthSouth Freeway(Parking Lot), Atlantic City Expressway, U.S.30(White Horse Pike),NJ 168,NJ42,U.S.322/40(Black Horse Pike) as those roads are crowded during rush hour, traffic to Atlantic City, Brigantine,Margate & other South Jersey Shore towns/resorts on Fridays, Sundays,Holiday weekends.

Fantastic footage sir!! Nice to see the Atlantic City Line gaining more coverage for its uniqueness.

Nice to see this. I used to ride this line back late 90s from Atco to AC when I worked in the casino

[@GladyMeCreativity]

Excellent video and commentary!

The AC line is a very underrated line to railfan. Go back 50-60 years when it was run by PRSL, you had all sorts of equipment in Atlantic City. RDC's, passenger trains, freight trains. Back in the late 80's/early 90's Trop World (Tropicana) had a small amusement park inside. One of the rides was an old time Atlantic City theme where you sat in a rolling chair. Well one of the beginning scenes was of being a "Shoobie" on the train ride down originally from Camden then to Philadelphia on a PRSL train. I personally wish NJ Transit would somehow get a line rebuilt to Cape May. While you were in Atlantic City railfanning, I was in your neck of the woods up in Northport visiting family and going to Citi Field to watch the Dodgers play the Mets. At the 1:03:53 mark, you can see the shopping center built at the old Cherry Hill Park. Famous by the Billy Joe Royal song... About 15 minutes away where 38 and 130 meet, is a very good steak place called "The Pub". Still cook steaks on an open hearth grill, known for their Caesar salad. Used to have 2 places in Philly one of which was called the"Pub Tiki" and known for it's Hawaiian and Asian/Islander food.

[@TrainsFerriesFeet]

I grew up a Mets fan in NJ and I haven't been to a game in more than 50 years. That's changing the last week of September. I'm just rarely in NYC during baseball season when the Mets are winning. I'll definitely be doing some railfanning, too.

[@christopherorourke6543]

I remember the old days of the PRSL Atlantic City line. It was double track when I have moved from Ridley Park, PA to Elwood, NJ. In 1967 the line became single track except for a portion from Cologne, NJ into Egg Harbor City,NJ & in the small Hammonton freight yard. Back then in the mid to late 1960’s there were the Budd RDC’s, passenger trains, The PRSL ran passenger trains between Camden & Atlantic City in 1964 through Clementon, Barrington, Audubon on its single track line.

[@WillBarb007]

The AC Rail line is the fastest way to get to the shore without being stuck in traffic on the expressway for 2 hours a 90 minute ride both ways is very enjoyable

[@Anna-qf9hm]

Great job and I love it

[@Anna-qf9hm]

Great job and I love it

[@charlesknickerbocker7097]

The Commodore Barry Bridge crosses the Delaware at Chester, PA, well south of where you are and looking out the north side of the train.

[@VideoalAZ]

I remember my first ride on that line as a young child in the '40s. We road the PRR from Newark to Philly, took a ferry over the Delaware River which smelled badly, and boarded the PRSL to Egg Harbor City.

[@Anna-qf9hm]

Great job and I love it

[@alvin8737]

I'm always happy to see your videos sir!

[@railbug6281]

mesmerizing through the trees, but beautiful scenery in the open, nice ride 👍

[@samuelbennie7690]

I'm shocked there is a dual-mode sitting on the other track at AC . Glad to see other equipment down that end.

[@stephenmarshall7709]

Yes that's the Tacony/Palmyra Bridge in the distance.

[@warrengibson7898]

The Betsy Ross Bridge bears a striking resemblance to the one that collapsed in Minneapolis.

[@Jeff-uj8xi]

F.Y.I. Pomo was for Pomona. Lica {pronounced like you 'lick' an ice cream cone} is for the Mullica River. Atco is for the beginning of Atlantic County. I think Fish was named after an old engineer, if my poor old memory recalls correctly. I knew that thirty-five years ago....lol.... I've been trying to get the sidings lengthened and joined up so there would be more double track. The right-of-way is wide enough for double track because it once was double track when it was P-RSL. When I got the Atlantic City Rail Line built, after rail service had ceased {I got the State of New Jersey to buy the dormant line for a bargain price from Conrail and then later I got Amtrak to rebuild it} because single track was all we could afford. I was told to accept that or nothing. I accepted it. If I had a way to communicate with you, I could send you an outline of the full story and my involvement. At our next meeting, on Sept. 8th, I'll mention again the dirty window issue on the ACRL cars. They told me the cleaning solution being used is scratching and fogging the windows. They said the issue was being addressed.

[@thomasgrunwald9065]

Jeff... You're probably the right person to address this to. I am in possession of about a 3-foot length of IRON U-rail that came from the original Camden and Atlantic Railroad. I would love to find out who is the historian for New Jersey Transit, and if they would like to talk to me about this obviously historical artifact that I have. Please get in touch with me. Thank you!

[@Davidsteiner-ke5ky]

[@BottomLin3Op]

There’s a DP down there, this past week.

[@tommymartin4827]

Your really knocking out the videos. I think it's great 👍

[@3985uprr]

Gotta pay the bills.

[@seanjohnson5377]

I just wrote the Atlantic City line yesterday I believe I was behind that engine

[@JG347Tv]

I want to try this one day because I usually drive down to Atlantic City from NYC

[@tommyg9719]

we need aces back, the ny penn to AC express

[@njtrailfan4508]

Amazing catches

[@timothyohare920]

The Irish pub was there before gambling,and it will be there after gambling Tim

[@3985uprr]

I wasn’t thrilled with the place.

[@keithklingensmith109]

Have you done a. Cab-view shot from. Atlantic. City to. Phili

[@3985uprr]

Hard to do that

[@fred5727]

This vid (and others too) reinforce my renaming of my former hometown (Philadelphia) as "filthy-delphia".

[@3985uprr]

As much as I love Philadelphia, I admit there’s a lot of seediness outside of city.

[@TheDodgeRamGuy]

Was I seeing right 4509 on the Atlantic City Line wow they must really be short on equipment

[@TristanClark45]

Same I saw the alp45 head down to atlantic city too but I just never saw it come back up

[@TheDodgeRamGuy]

@@TristanClark45 it may have mechanical issues and couldn't make another run it may eventually move with some other poor equipment you may actually see it part of a revenue run back to North Jersey for better equipment

[@ewrjoe4822]

Very cool.

[@mygins5820]

How do you know what trains are coming and when?

[@3985uprr]

I extrapolated from a timetable

[@nathanjiang100]

great video! you usually sit on the left side of the train why was that not the case this time?

[@3985uprr]

Terrible sun angles. I am very mindful where the sun is when I do these

[@Jeff-uj8xi]

Where was this dual mode locomotive that commenter Samuel Bennie said he saw on your video in the Atlantic City Terminal? You obviously didn't see it either or I'm sure you would have mentioned it. The only time I know of a dual mode ever being in Atlantic City was when we did catenary clearance tests into 30th Street some years back. The test train had multi-level coaches too, for height clearances. Everything worked fine. Speaking of using dual mode locomotives on the Atlantic City line, I have been pressing for some ACRL trips to go directly into Center City Philly, to Suburban Station and or Jefferson Station {formerly Market East}. The ACRL trains would use the upper level at 30th Street. SEPTA told me that they had no objection, but now that the upper level at 30th Street, Suburban and Jefferson have fare gates, it causes a logistical issue. A way would need to be found for ACRL passengers to deal with the SEPTA fare gates. But it isn't impossible or unheard of, since NJT uses fare gates at the Frank Lautenberg Station at Secaucus Jct. Coded strips on the NJT tickets and passes open the fare gates. Our employee passes have a chip, which also opens those gates.

[@3985uprr]

I saw it. It pushed my train into Atlantic City. I mentioned that in my other video that day. What do you do with New Jersey Transit? I didn’t mention it in the video because I’m more of an EMD guy who loves the Geeps.

[@billhayes9262]

Has there ever been a train that went from Newark to AC ?

[@3985uprr]

The ACE several years ago

[@bdhjones]

Why don't NJ Transit invest money in expanding the North Jersey Coast Line to Atlantic City ?

[@3985uprr]

Big project

[@ilovelolsurprise3419]

Because that would be wayyyyy too far and also very expensive

[@JoshuaTheTransitProdigy]

[@Robbi496]

This baby really moves, looks more like 90 than 80 mph?

[@AirchimeLTDproductions174]

Used to be MAS of 90mph before the PTC work. Then Transit had the running speed dropped to 80.

[@Anna-qf9hm]

Great job

[@MimicoBungalow]

Tremendously unprofessional announcement at the end of the journey

[@seanjohnson5377]

[@hiltondrivef8458]

Wouldn't it be nice if the newjersey rail projects would take somethe tax they use for gas and take it to the advantage and extend the newjersey coust train from north jersey using the old blue coment lines between lakewood and Lakehurst some of it supposed to out if service and some are probably already abandoned but with tax money they really can salvage and ma k e the atantic city extend to the usable the northeast corridor

[@arthureverett8220]

Look at all that graffiti on those buildings!!!! It must stink of urine near that graffiti. The gangs mark their trails with their pee

[@richcook2007]

Crappy plexi windows...

[@tgmct]

And thy were cleaned once when they were new!

[@kevinhoward9593]

only NJ would have a grade crossing in the middle of a highway. My god that's so stupid.

[@loocpoc]

There was no other way of building the connector from the expressway to Brigantine

No but, when you cross the Delaware River you cross into a different state.
