Good reading, thanks Wolf; a positive statement on the 'planned' facility up north in Perth Amboy....would be nice to see that come to fruition.

Very interesting article! Thanks for the link Wolf!

The current 64W came in overnight Friday night and delivered the first cut of tanks to Sunoco. Sunday morning the recent CSAO WPCA20 power was added to 64W's power and the second cut was delivered.
The first batch of empties was then pulled, photographed crossing US 130.

Latest 64W power with the NYC heritage unit made a delivery to Sunoco today (4/7/2013) with the second cut of loaded tankers. They also made an empty pull. Crew symbol was FC80-

Great pics. Hoping it gets to PA and then turned around to head a train to NNJ.

oh someone got video of it nearly getting hit by a car a few nights ago. Driver didn't pay attention, didn't see it or tried to beat it. Stopped within inches.

NYC Heritage 1066 wyed at Bulson Street.

Trust me, that is a regular occurance at that crossing. One old lady last month even disregarded the conductor's order TWICE to stop as the train was beginning to shove into the siding during a daylight move. She drove right around him after originally stopping.

The train that came in overnight Friday morning had Operation Lifesaver C40-9W NS 9256, C44-9W BNSF 1006, and SD70ACe 9174; photographed at Pavonia Friday afternoon.

An FC80 crew delivered the second cut of crude oil to Sunoco Logistics in Westville shortly after 16:00 today with BNSF 9174 leading the way down-

On the other end, NS 9256, 1 out of 7 C40-9W's with OLS logos, led BNSF 1006 into Sunoco and is seen here pulling across Rt. 45-

More on Saturday's delivery: OLS NS 9256 and BNSF 1006 led the loads being shoved toward Sunoco. They got as far as the derail at Route 130, then were pulled back to the Vineland Secondary, where they were cut off while BNSF 9174 shoved the crude to Sunoco, seen crossing Route 130.

The train that came in Sunday night and remained hidden finally showed itself Tuesday morning when it pulled the first set of empties out of Sunoco.
trailing the pull, BNSF 9774 approaching Gateway Blvd
NS 9362 and 6766 pulled to North Woodbury so the north end of the train cleared the Olive Street crossing in Westville.

Today's edition of 64W (5/5/2013) entered southern New Jersey at 2:50pm with NS 8005, NS 8001, and BNSF 4365.
