Just some Saturday late afternoon shooting I got in at Roselle Park (NJT Raritan Valley Line) on the CSAO Lehigh Line. This was shot using a small but new Nikon S6500 I recently acquired due to the demise my S3000, which was severely damaged in an outing my daughters had about 2 months ago. For a small point and shoot, which I now make it practice to keep in my truck 24/7/365 in case I do not have my 60D on me, which this day was the case, and a moment of railfanning became available, so I tested her out!! Here are the results!!!

First off, 2 videos......

NS 33K, Croxton Yard to Allentown PA, westbound on Track 2 at CP ROSELLE PARK, led by C40-8 8759 and C40-8W 8417......


NS 20K, Chicago 47th Street to Croxton Yard, now eastbound on Track 2 at CP ROSELLE PARK, with the lead covered by a triplet of C40-9Ws, 9626/9599/9908......


Now for some afternoon "golden light" still shots......

NJT 5527 west on Track 1 (notice far of fin the pic east by CP TOWNLEY is the tail end of NS 20K)

NJT 5524 with an ill timed CSX K532, Massena NY to Curtis Bay MD (Baltimore), empty bauxite/potash hoppers, led by CSX SD50-3 (Ex-Seaboard System) and ES44AH 829, westbound on Track 1 (FINALLY!! I get a shot of a freight running thru CP ROSELLE PARK on Track 1 rather than the gantlet on Track 1)

Thanks to NJT 5524 for screwing this one up!! I wanted to get the K532 from the cut off fence at the very end of the platform on the Track 2 side, but with the NJT being there, safety first, a definite no go!! I made the best of things!!)
