Posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Thu Jun 4 14:48:06 2009 Here's a little collection of an outing in New Jersey yesterday, visiting Bound Brook, where it was wall to wall trains, with a stopover in New Brunswick and Jersey Avenue!! Enjoy!! Oh, and by the way, The # 1 Conductor has a new toy he was trying out...a Panasonic LUMIX 10.1 MP Camera with 18X zoom.....time had come to go beyond the point-n-shoots!! Hope you all like!! Comes in three (3) parts....PART ONE: Bound Brook (CP BOUND BROOK)..... CP BOUND BROOK is hardly ever quiet, as evidenced by an immediate catch as soon as I arrived, CSAO Local MA01, with NS GP40-2 #3022 waiting to be crossed over from Track 2 to Track 1 at CP BOUND BROOK, as NS manifest 18G fast approaches, with SD70M 2624 and Conrail Quality (NS) C40-8W 8402 on Track 1 (and you thought Metro-North specialized in wrong railing!!).....     3 minutes and over 100 cars later, bye bye 18G!! Off to Oak Island!!  Now MA01 gets her shot!!.....    You know what....this one is better seen on video, up close and personal!!.....CSAO MA01!! Note how sneaking up behind MA01 also on Track 2 and staying on Track 2 is CSX Q-300 (Greenwich Yard, Philadelphia PA to Oak Island Yard, Newark NJ)..... And now...CSX Q-300, with GE ES44AH GEVOs 898 and 916, and 101 cars, and another 3-4 awesome minutes of good mixed, and in a couple instances, stinky, manifest!! (EPIC medical and bio-waste dumpsters, all double stacked and stinkin' like high hell!!)....     MA01 is in the lead, IN THE LEAD, but Q-300 is fast approaching, FAAAAAAST APPROACHING, gaining, and gaining, and gaining.....    Now, with a very brief lull, we look around to check things out..... NJT Raritan Valley Line CP BROOK.....  CSAO Bound Brook Yard.....  Now, finally the RVL comes to life, Track 1 with westbound Train #5725 to High Bridge, with PL42AC #4006 with 6 single-level "mixed bag o' train" Comets, Comet V Cab #6018 on the east end.....        Now coming east, with a nice full set of Multi-Levels, Train #5438 to Newark, Multi-Level Cab #7020 in the lead, with PL42AC #4010 pushing.....     Bye bye 5438....DUNELLEN NEXT!!!.....   More action setting up for the Lehigh, as CSX intermodal Q-190 (Greenwich Yard, Philadelphia PA to Kearny Yard, Kearny NJ) moves up to and holds at CP BOUND BROOK, while Track 2 shows signs of forthcoming activity, with NORAC Rule 285 "Approach" is well displayed, as an oncoming downpour moves in.....  Coming hot off the Port Reading Secondary (PRS) , CSAO Work Train MA95 with CSX "Oak Pointer" SD40-2 #8815 dropping tie bales for PRS trackwork, and also picking up used ties, as a summer-like downpour sets in at Bound Brook.....  And down comes the rain....guessin' Mother Nature told CSX it's time to wash them engines!!!!.....  CSX Q-190 gets the nature wash at CP BOUND BROOK while awaiting our next southbound to go by off Track 2, CSX Q-409 (Selkirk Yard, Albany NY to Waycross, GA).....  #8815 and MA95 sit while MOW crews aboard the train pick up used ties off the PRS right of way.....  CSX Q-409 comin' atcha, Track 2, leads by ex-CR C40-8W #7360 (former CR 6198) and C40-8 #7646.....    Now, with Q-409 on its way south towards the Trenton Subdivision, here comes CSX Q-190, just a little tardy for a hotshot double stack intermodal, with GE ES44DC GEVOs 5351 and 5455.....     Now with Q-409 and Q-190 out of the way, MA95 gets to proceed west thru CP BOUND BROOK to Manville Yard, coming west on a NORAC Rule 286 "Medium Approach" (steady red over flashing yellow) off the PRS.....  After MA95 clears, the silence still does not return to CP BOUND BROOK, as CSAO Local MA02 bound for the PRS enters and holds at CP BOUND BROOK.....  And now activity on the RVL, Train #5440 to Newark, with yet another Multi-Level consist, Cab #7003, with PL42AC #4022 west end pushing.....       Westbound and slightly tardy is Train #5427 to Raritan, lead by PL42AC #4011, with Comet V Cab #6016 on the east end.....    4011 with a smoky departure.....    Now, MA95 backs up eastward thru CP BOUND BROOK onto Track 1, where the 8815 will cut off from the gondolas of the work train, the crew secure the hand brakes, and chug off east on Track 2 after heading west after the cut, stopping west of CP BOUND BROOK to cross over to Track 2 and go on east, as MA02 heads east on the PRS, lead by NS GP38-2 #5637.....       And after a resounding "CHOWW!!" signifying the engine has uncoupled, 8815 went west, cleared CP BOUND BROOK, for signal indication and line up onto Track 2, where the engine eases alongside the standing work consist, the conductor places handbrakes on each end, then to finish up our time at Bound Brook as radio and signals indicate the Lehigh is quieting up, we watch 8815 head off on east!!          Thanks for joining in on our stay at Bound Brook!! Next, we will reconvene at Jersey Avenue for a few!! Hope you all enjoyed!! :-) |

Made me feel like I was there.btw, where is Grenwich yard in Phily located??? I thought it was adjacent to Franklyn field where they parked 10's of trains - all pulled by GG1's - on Army Navy game day... It's no longer there now. |

Pt. 1 - Bound Brook, posted by Train Man Paul : Metro-North's Best Conductor FOR ALL 3 LINES!!! on Thu Jun 4 14:48:06 2009. Last time I was at Bound Brook, there was only 1 track and they were working on adding the second one. I love checking out the passenger and freight action at that station. I must get back down there sometime. Last time I was there was back in 2007. These are some excellent photos!Congrats on the new camera! |

I will son be taking pictures of the DC Metro and rail activity in that area. Before I post them, I'll have to by a new computer, probably a lab top. right now, I use a company computer that is off limits to posting anything. Can't even get videos, since streaming media is filtered out. |

How did passenger trains get there? Did they cross the Schukill and go down that hi-line at 25'th St through S. Phily.? |

Pt. 1 - Bound Brook, posted by Terrapin Station on Thu Jun 4 22:38:53 2009. Then just about every camera is, theoretically, a point and shoot!! You would point a Nikon D series just as same as you would point a simple Kodak 7 MP camera at a photo subject, then shoot, get the shot!! |

Well how about you stop being a typical asshole which seems to be common place for yourself, and simple either say "nice photos!!", or just say nothing at all, instead turning a simple photo post into another case of Whineyberg's Show Of Stupidity and Idiocy!! If you don't have anything positive to say, don't say any damn thing at all!! My photos and posts are not here for your sole approval!! If you do not like, don't look at them or don't say a damn thing!! |

Pt. 1 - Bound Brook, posted by Bee Flexible #823 on Fri Jun 5 01:18:53 2009. Thanks much!! :-)The double tracking of the Lehigh Line wrapped up somewhere between late '07 and mid '08 just about. And the double track still gets delays, which makes Bound Brook the best because then CR North Jersey Dispatcher would route some trains via the Port Reading Secondary, which can be seen well at the eastbound Bound Brook platform, albeit not as up close, but still viewable. |

Pt. 1 - Bound Brook, posted by 5119 on Fri Jun 5 01:28:17 2009. Thanks!! :-)Hey get a computer with lots of memory!! You will be surprised how much memory all these photos takes up, and I easily have I would say close to 6000-7000!!! Many I have not even begun to post, also stored on CD and removable drives. Get lots of memory and also consider the removable USB drives of 2GB or more. Too much photo clutter can crash a system quickfast!!! And if you come to the NY/NJ area, Bound Brook is a great spot, in my opinion, pound for pound, the best railfan area in the Tri-State Area!!! |

And if ever you are in the Central NJ area, Middlesex County for instance, give Bound Brook a visit, Wednesday-Friday, all in the PM, are best!! Saturdays can field some action, but usually closer to dark. |

Too much photo clutter can crash a system quickfast!!!Are you freaking serious??? I have like 30,000 photos (actually, probably more like 50,000+ photo files) on my computer and it is perfectly fine. Stop talking like you know what you are talking about. |

Pt. 1 - Bound Brook, posted by Terrapin Station on Fri Jun 5 13:31:28 2009. Of what size and are they actually on your hard drive or on CDs or removable media???? And photo files, like any other form of stored media, takes up space and does slow down a computer's performance, and since we can not tell how well your system performs, who is to say how well it runs!!Clutter in a computer's hard drive and memmory SLOWS IT DOWN!! Anyone who knows computers knows that, so what are you talking about?? If you have 50,000 or 50,000,000 photos with no problem, GOOD FOR FUCKIN' YOU!! What I stated is fact, anyone who has a computer knows too much clutter slows it down, and large photos occupy space on a drive and memory, and thus every bit of memory and drive space does translate into a slow performing system, same as if you have too many MP3 music or media files all on your system!! Learn the facts....read a computer repair book!!! |

The trains from New York came down the West Philly High Line and the trains from Washington entered the south (west) end of the High Line, both then crossing the Schuylkill over the bridge at University Ave, and randown to the stadium.
