I can't seem to locate the post to add this reply to an existing thread so here we go:
Today while out to catch AMTK#49(17) with the NJT Comet-1Bs on the rear (again) I observed an 8 car train. I know in the past this has been a rare occasion. I'm told that this is currently being done with TWO trainsets to provide additional capacity on the NHV side where those two sets are runing during the rush on one of the 'combined' trains.
Anyway, here's the video showing the 8-car train:

Truth be told I didn't even notice it myself when I was filming the video --- rather it was brought to my attention by Mr. G of Beacon.
