Gorgeous K5Hs! Love the shot with the K5H and mechanical crossing bell. Great whistle on the steamer too.

Those just re-painted C430's were absolutely stunning!

50:38 *Pompton Industrial

Do train still run on those tracks by route 211 in middletown?

Looking forward to having time for this. First 5 min looks promising!

Thanks for uploading this video.😊I really enjoyed it.I give you ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 star rating.😊Its a great video.😊

I was sorry to see this go- your video must have been April/May as she left not long after. Arrived right after Memorial Day weekend 1999 IIRC.

I love that scene! Nice train too!

Very nice.

Interesting to see how track rehab methods have changed. Especially the snipping or severing of the ties in place prior to removal. Today they just get removed in one piece instead of three. And they no longer furrow where the new tie goes in. They just jam the new one in pushing the dirt aside.

Not much has changed lol! I caught SU99 stalling out not to long ago and it happened exactly like this.

37:41 This is probably the only known video footage of the old High Mountain Road Railroad Crossing at Crystal Lake in Franklin Lakes, NJ. There was a train station across the road to the right of the tracks until it was torn down in the 1960's I believe. Where the station and crossing used to be is now underneath an offramp on State Route 208 that goes onto Interstate 287. While everything to the left is now also gone and is now part of Interstate 287.

Would there be a reason today to rebuild the Susie-Q from Sparta Junction to Slateford Junction/Delaware Water Gap?

Cool. As a youth in the sixties, I'd enlarge pennies on the track in Warwick. There are many tracks throughout the country that can be rehabilitated. It would be beneficial to run RDC's for passengers on these tracks.

They should bring back the butler day express and borrow the #142 to pull the train.

I like how the traffic signals work in conjunction with the railroad here, giving the railroad a yellow aspect (4:45 mark) when it is safe for the Railroad to cross here, the signal governing traffic movement ois brought to a stop.

These B40's are now in Nashville on the Nashville & Eastern

I was the engineer on the #2 that day. good time!!

Got me in this..

This video brings back so many memories. After the Morris County Central left in 1980, these tracks sat dormant. I used to ride my bike along the old rails, at the junction with the Jersey Central Along the reservoir. Now I live in Upstate NY, and the NYSW is 300 feet from My house. I see 2 trains per day. Great video

6:41 What a douchebag!

The sound of SusieQBlowing up some steam and the Whistle on Susquehanna 142

Are you related to Harry?

I like the NYS&Ws B40s and the GP38-2

Whatever happened to the steam engine they had back in the 90s

Nice little 44 tonner

Nice little 44 tonner

I will NEVER forget that CP/DH detour train 268, that ran the day before my father died.

What to their container business and this line that they rehabbed?

Back in the '40s, I rode the SuzieQ regularly as a passenger, mostly on their ACF motorcars, got my taste of the smell of diesel oil from riding these, still own three diesel cars myself. As I remember you could hear the engineer shifting gears in the ACF cars as it wized from Hoboken to Hackensack where my grandmother lived, I would pay good money to ride that trip once again for the memories. The suzie was established to bring PA hard coal to the NY market and that all dried up in the late forties when everything switched to oil, most of the railroads that did this are now history, I'm glad that the suzie has found a new purpose and can continue, sure wish they'd bring passenger service back on the old Erie to the wester tier of NY and from Scranton to NYC.

Wish this project was going on today miss sawing ties. We sawed a lot of the ties for this project here in NY it was fun back then running the mill.

Are those ex SP tunnel motors?

Cars for Morris Pipe!

any chance you remember the location around the 7:30 mark?

50:18 yikes. Looked highly unsafe

I like 3040 from Susquehanna

Nice Video

Yeah looks painful bro

what year was this taken

Do any of those old Alcoa survive?

Has the track been upgraded even more since this was filmed?

' THE STATION AGENT " THAT MOVIE 🎥 SUCKED MORE THAN THIS VIEDO !!

I guess it was cheaper for the Q to go buy some ratty older power than to keep the lease on the last few B40’s they had? Funny that these were built to CSX specs as they were supposedly tacked onto to a CSX order for B40s. And lo and behold, CSX eventually got all of them after the leases were up!

Amazing video

👌 great movie great blooper💪😅great video..🍺🍺👍👍

Great video! I have now lived in Middletown for about 5 years not far from the Lumber yard where the M&NJ delivers. Being a railfan, I really enjoy having this little freight line in our city. Being into model railroading, I came across a model of the #2 switcher and thought that it was just the model painted with M&NJ. After further research, I learned it was a real engine, so seeing this video is really great. Do you have knowledge of the #2 and where it is at now since M&NJ is using the GP-38's?

52:13 before I-287

NYS&W TRAIN STATION AT BUTLER N.J. IS A MUSEUM PASSANGER SERVICE LONG GONE !!!÷÷÷÷ NEVER 2 RETURN !!!!!!!! 🚆
