By going south instead of north from 36th Street, I caught the Conrail American Crane at West Deptford and Woodbury, not to mention the TRANSCAER train, also in Woodbury.

Any info on what the TRANSCAER train was all about?
Obviously some sort of demonstration.

OK, with a quick Google, I answered my own question:
"TRANSCAER is dedicated to educating emergency responders and their communities and includes safety training cars from the Firefighters Education and Training Foundation.
The DuPont CAER Car is actually made up of three railcars tied together under one number (DUPX 911A, 911B and 911C), like an articulating car for carrying Intermodal containers. The 911A is a tank car that is equipped with multiple valve housing, apparatuses, and bottom outlet valves. The 911B section is a refrigerator boxcar that has been converted into a class room that will accommodate about 30 people. The 911C is a caboose that has been modified and serves as an equipment car.
