Then no.

Aprox 3pm today - I snapped a pic of the SA02 crew using CSXT 4419 drilling cars @ Mauser - Highview Industrial Park, East Brunswick, NJ.

good to see they finally put a new switch stand in on the industrial lead. That switch was hard to throw 5 years ago.

Looks like they're going to do some switch replacement in the yard, as there were three sitting beside track 1 today, ready to go in........
And a couple of pics from today:

The crane was back this morning - and some other MoW equipment - right outside the yard office. If I wasn't running late for work I'd have stopped.

I will get on the road a little earlier Friday morning and hopefully they'll still be working and I can get some shots.

The crane has been there since last reported, it just moves around to places where you cannot see it.

You will need 160.935 for the South Jersey dispatcher, 160.860 for operations in and out of Browns Yard, and 161.235 for NJ Transit's North Jersey Coast Line.

No, and there is an NS SD40-2 3426, not to sure what else is there.

Greetings all,
Nothing too exciting here, just a few images from back in '89 for your pleasure.......

Thanks.

The Railroad Construction Co are doing some work over at the Bordentown Ave crossing.

Are they making the crossing into a wye?

By the way a report sent to me says CSX 4428 in Conrail Quality Blue has been sent to Browns.
