that is one of the biggest myths on the railroad. "No one rides the lower coast line....."

Just like no one rides the AC line......

Or, JT never breaks equipment...

Oh silly me, that was your alternate personality TRE who does that. And I bet you actually believe that you don't shoot railfan videos because you probably classify them as educational documentaries.

"I don't know what this Arrow 3 car is doing... on a train... however it seems to be sitting on the express track in trenton, just chillin' out doing nothing... i think that this train may be disabled, i'm not sure... umm, it's umm... ahh there it goes! i've never seen a train sitting on the express track like that before. someone could explain why that might be happening would be awesome."

What on earth are you talking about/smoking?!? I beg you please to stop trying to make me out as someone else who I'm clearly not. I really thought you & others were joking. I don't have time to take my friends out for dinner unless I schedule a day off. Just because I know what the ties in Trenton look like doesn't mean I spend many days there. I was waiting with my sister for her friend and I simply took a nice walk along both platforms, and I noticed lots of odd junk and cracked ties.

You can feel free to take off the foil hat now...

Nick's niche is an itch to lick the icks of the snitch.

Which witch?

If I were a certain misognyistic Congressman from Queens, I'd say either. Heck, I'll say either anyway. Or both.

We've hit a new low!

There he goes again! Volunteering information. You apparently have no time because work is 98% of your life, but you apparently have plenty of time to spot out "junk ties" at trenton with your sister waiting for her friend wondering up and down all the platforms.

Exactly why it's being kept in Port Morris, to keep it away from prying eyes. And you forgot to add rails to your description of Port Morris.

wondering if all AMT ALP's will arrive in Newark and any set day to catch them going up on the river line.

Now that is interesting. Thanks!

Some of us are here to learn. (About NJ Transit, I mean. LOL )

No, i didn't forget. I did say mostly weeds and ballast, the rest being ties and rail being implied.
