2009
In this high definition video, New Jersey Transit Atlantic City Line trains are seen flagging the Westfield Ave grade crossing in Pennsauken a malfunctioning grade crossing signal. NJT Police were also on hand to also help protect the grade crossing.
Locomotives (Lead Locomotive/Trailing)
1. NJT Cabcar #5017 / NJT GP40PH-2B #4212 w/
2. NJT P40 #4803 / NJT ALP-44M #4429 (ACES)
3. NJT ALP-44E #4415 / NJT P40 #4802
*Note* - Made sure to the best of my ability to keep the faces of the crew members OFF camera.
ALL trains were filmed from public property.
As always, thanks for watching! Please take a quick second to rate and leave a comment. Thanks I appreciate it!

This is amazing quality for 2009.
Love when the GP40 pulls away. So scary. Reminds me of when I was a kid - watching them come at me. Like seeing a monster ;)
Same!!
bro i used to cover my ears when they came into or left a station
Thanks Kyle. Of course, it happens quite often. But since my camera is so clear its easier to see who they are/what they are doing. I try whenever possible not to put any train crews on camera. Of course, seeing the engineer through the window is unavoidable. It's just the way I roll :)
Sweet video, dude. 5017's horn sounded pretty good. As always, 5*, a favorite, and a channel post.
nice catch. I like when trains have to flag crossings, its a chance to see cool stuff.
nostalgia ☺️
Grade crossings do malfunction almost everywhere. Its happened many times on the Baltimore Light Rail. And the last one I heard with the Baltimore Light Rail service had to be suspended on the Light Rail as the result and shuttle buses had to operate the service.
I am a train and I approve this video! :D
Wow lol
The alp44 operation without a antenna. That one got me weird.
Cameron Mao pantograph, not antenna
@@theawesomeone24peters31 Oh
I found Comet IV Cab Car #5017 all these years later
@Keither754 TO be fair, the ACES is run by NJ Transit via the Northeast Corridor and Atlantic City Line switching at Frankfort Junction
Thanks!
I saw 4212 on the NJCL, Great Video!
:)
who tf asked
@@lorourke2472 literally not a single soul. not my proudest comment
I like catchs and horns and also a bell i like how the aces train moving slowy forward so i like aces train is my fav train i ever seen
ALP44 Cabcar, nice
No problem. And I see what you mean about clarity -- your camera is INSANELY sharp! But I still don't understand what they need to be protected from? If it was a cab ride, or someone hanging out of a window.. yeah. But an operation like this? And LOL nice, Mike. Nice =D
u got the police car, u got the crossing gates lowered, why do u need the conducter to halt traffic??
Much history no longer with us. The P40DCs, the ALP-44s, the Comet IV cabs, the ACES, all gone. The P40DCs now serve Connecticut's CTrail, while the Comet IV cab cars remain as trailing coaches. The ALP-44s are stored.
Nice Catch
Grade Crossing malfunctions are a nightmare near my school, though I only experienced one. I remember taking two hours on the bus b/c they couldn't open up the gates at the Lake Road crossing on the Gladstone Branch.
Wow
why does njt use strobe lights on top of the comtes and alp 44E
WRONG. It's and ALP-44. unless you mean alp44-Electric. 4420-4431 are ALP 44Ms.
awesome catchs and horns
deathcult, the aces trains runs from penn new york to atlantic city so they have the 44 on there to run from penn station threw the tunnel to newark. at newark they usealy stop and drop the pans and run deisel to ac and deisel to newark again. the 44 is pretty much only there to get threw the tunnel to penn station
Excellent video, definitely a favorite!
Davis
Sounds like MBTA cab car
the inside of our double deckers are the same are yours, they are only blocky like you see because all of the close clearences in New York Penn and other areas, as well as pantographs were taken into effect durring the design
Oh that's so weird to see NJT on street level!
@Jc42bugs I would guess that the gates are stuck down and cop or no cop the trains are required by law to flag at the crossing (I'm not from the States and don't know thetransportation laws in the US, but that would make the most sense)
Nice video, it was cool stuff.
cool video and why was the crossing getting flaged and was this on Sunday?
Cool
FOR ALL ACES EXPERTS:
Were all the trains in this video heading for Atlantic City, New York, or somewhere else?
An eastbound ACES would be going to Atlantic City, while a westbound ACES would be going to New York. Of course, the ACES service was discounted years ago...
You mean pantograph
NY
can someone tell NJT that they need to electrify the ACL line and get new horns for the ALP44's they sound awful
The horns don’t sound awful
I live very near to that branch line
Great video Mike, 5*
I dont get why you have to 'protect the crews' though, isn't this something that just happens sometimes?
Wow Comet iv cab cars actually had normal horns
Hey did you see someone else copyed your work on TH-cam & reposted as his own ?
Nice catch. I'm more familiar with the NJT on the Raritan Valley/NEC than Atlantic City lines. I knew they were using the P40s down there, but were they always running with a locomotive at each end? Up this way they either use a cab car or run the engine around the train. Interesting that they use the older electric ALPs. Are there electrified tracks at some point? Thanks!
There were electrified tracks until Conrail de-electrified the line
That AEM-7 the horn is cool
MINECRAFT Xbox boy That's not an AEM-7 although they do look similar in a few ways
It's An ALP-44
ploopy523 I know
That is actually an ALP-44. These retired when NJT's ALP-46As came along.
nice...
RIP Aces
:( wish I got to see it, especially the PL42/ multilevel push pull consist. Oh well maybe they’ll make another express service down here someday
Ace amtrak express out of business because low ridership its been shutting down June 2017
It was kinda crazy how at 1:53 the conductor climbed off the train while it was in motion
That's nothing compared to get on or getting off on the fly lol
How is that ALP44 moving, it’s it just being shoved by the P40? Or is it moving under battery power?
On the ACL the P40 was the one supplying the power to the whole train while on the NEC the ALP-44 supplies the power to the whole train.
cool horn
so the trains were flagged down at that crossing for what reason?
Because the gates have a malfunction.
nice
Crossing lights with gates and even a cop blocking traffic, but they're still required to flag their way across?
Hello :: Can someone here tell me why is there a police office at the grade crossing and that the gates are working right.
Jonathan c the level crossings don't work so they're tryna fix it (I guess)
What town are you a cop for
That aces train would’ve worked but switching from diesel to electric at Philadelphia turnoff you sat on the track for sometimes a hour which turned people off the service.
It shouldn’t take that long to turn off the engine and turn the other one on with the pantograph using MU cables
Real Railroading.
Me Ben Ami Love Miss New Jersey Transit Ace Trains So Very Much it's True That Really True
Yes but its NEVER coming back lol
What was the problem? Gates look fine, they have transit PD there
The gates were stuck down.
The rookie was the conductor Flagging with a red flag. A hand or white cloth or paper would be bettor.
After railfaning the ACL for 6 or 7 years i still dont understand why the cars get sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo dirty. lol
That's one weird video clip...looks like the train is "running in place."
why did it have to stop?
To allow the flagger to detrain.
Trains rule 138 ground warning
why are they doing this?
Theyre trying to test the crossing but it somehow died
I thought #4415 was an E-60
nope ALP-44.
HMM!!! Norac rule 138 C Item 1......On Ground Warning!!
OMB
New njt bus
New njt trains
I'm dod
