In 2 hours, you could be in Bermuda!

[@TravelwithMark]

You could, but then you'd have to put up with all those tiresome Bri'ish people.

My dad was the locomotive engineer on this line for 42 years....back when it was the Jersey Central RR.

[@TravelwithMark]

I think they still have his train Jack

@@TravelwithMark spent a lot of time hanging out in Bay Head junction. Got to ride up front with him to Jersey City several times.

[@TravelwithMark]

Awesome!

Nice Eire Lackawanna catch

[@TravelwithMark]

Not sure how many of these are out there. I’ve seen the same one, or similar at Edison

[@naomimaxey436]

Enjoyed your video. Was the beach and restaurant close by ?

[@TravelwithMark]

Yes, couple of suburban blocks. Very easy walk as well. No hills or anything like that. There are some steps over the dunes to get onto the actual beach.

[@naomimaxey436]

Thank you

[@kevinhoward9593]

why would it be two trains?

[@TravelwithMark]

There’s no straight through train. The changeover is to the oldest, most run down NJT train for that local stretch on the shore

[@solomongabert6776]

It is sad how gross these trains are.

[@TravelwithMark]

It is indeed. They are quite filthy. Seats are dirty, toilets not cleaned. They could be so much more if there was just a little pride in the product.

[@TravelwithMark]

That said, they do seem to be replacing some of the older ones with newer designs that look like they’re easier to clean and maintain. We can only hope
