Short but sweet this one! But hey, who were those two walking on the tracks at the 2:50 mark? Don't they know they could get squashed? To say nothing of ruining the head-end crews day! I'm curious about those overhead power lines toward the end of the video. Are those commercial electric power lines or old electric railroad catenarys? It's something you don't see every day. Thanks for posting!
People seem to like using the railroad tracks in Woodbury as a walking path a lot, haha. We saw several other people walking it that day. Also, those power lines are commercial. They weren't ever electric, however, if I'm not mistaken, the PRSL ran electric down to Millville a looong time ago using a third rail. Thanks for watching!
@@SouthJerseyRailfan Oh yeah, we read on Paramus Daily Voice (A North Jersey news site) about people getting flattened by NJ Transit trains, it seems to happen at least once a month. If they're not suicides by train (tragic) then they're people using the tracks for short-cuts. Not smart. As the saying goes "Any time is train time!" And you're right about the PRSL being third rail at one time, I've got several issues of "West Jersey Rails," a publication put out by the local chapter of the NRHS down there with maps showing the old rail lines, PRSL through Glassboro was shown as third rail back in the 1930's.

Those cars on CA64 look oodly familiar....great video, glad you were able to document the move.
Yup, they sure do! I'm glad they ran that.. If not, we would've been out of luck big time. Thanks for watching!
