Super camera work! Great shots! The grey day and the sparse foliage highlighted the rail footage. Combine that with the audio, which was great in stereo, and it was a very enjoyable 14+ minutes. Thank you! But it must have been cold! I kept wanting to put on thermal underwear!
Those double deckers are such ghastly looking monstrosities! Oh well they're needed. It always tripped me out how the motorman can operate a nonpowered unit in a push configuration. I still haven't gotten used to that. it still looks odd to me. I would love to drive an ALP-46. I think it would be the experience of a lifetime
The mystery of American commuter rail. The non standardized platforms, Some high, some low, different length. Semi electrified lines having to use both diesel and electric trains. Can anyone explain?
It's an old PA RR line. Basically built for summer traffic. People didn't start to live year round in many of these communities until the 60's. Money is a big part & politics. It's taken forever & still not finished but it's something.

Great video footage of the N. Jersey Coast Line.
Way back when Flashing Ditchlights was a thing
yeah, i wish they still used them. i wonder why the stopped. the horn sounds great at 2:39 and 12:31.
+Main Line Productions I think it was a certain standard that wasn't needed anymore
Bigmindcreator is just a name I really liked when njt used ditchlights why dont they any more
@dwkcamman611 Thank you! For my first time up there, I was pleased with my footage! I can not wait to go back again in the summer.
@wasy35 The raw power, speed, size, mass, sounds, all make up this awesome machine that is just cool to watch.
Great Work! Only complaint is, you skipped Manasquan Station.
Great Video! This is the North Jersey Coast Line right?
Yes but only a small section
10:05 my favorite crossing bell which are WCH
Can you get a shot of a train going through the Route 35/Broad Street railroad crossing?
@GenesisSanctuary i loved the 44's cause that wat got me started in trains. and i loved seeing them at convent. your right it is not the same
@NJTJake Nov. 8th, 2010 was the date in which this was taken.
Beautiful video! I hope you dont mind i used a clip of the alp44 in a short mashing it with a video i took of its current state

Oh yeah, and I was planning on doing this for the NJT Morris And Essex line! Seems you beat me too it lmao!
I Love NJ Transit ❤
I rode the Hoboken Expeess from Bay Head to Hoboken and it goes through the middle of MMC shops
Excellent video, Adam!

@trainutjob Thanks Dan! You're the man!
Very nice work! Well done!

What kind of camera did you use at the Red bank Station??
@CSX6000 Haha no problem.
How come trains are fascinating?
What is the name of the camera??
Great!

Trains were probably going to Hoboken or Newark.

The same one I used throughout the whole video.
Doesn't NJT use GP-38's on some trains?
@GenesisSanctuary You're right, they have so much more style to them than a commuter toaster! It's just not the same!!
