| Description: |
234 years ago, one of the largest battles in the American Revolution took place in this very area; in 1853, this line (the Freehold & Jamesburg Agricultural RR) began, and was later incorporated into the PRR. Today, the line is still operated by Conrail Shared Assets Operations, and plays host to the annual CR Browns Yard Santa Train, distributing goodwill & toys to the people of central Monmouth County |

| Description: |
The beauty, and flexibility, of DCS territory; 2 trains on the same track, facing each other only 600 feet apart. Southbound Conrail transfer job JR-2 waits in the distance as Conrail local PR-19 comes out of the yard, negotiates the Hess crossovers, and prepares to shove (towards the camera) to the refinery about a mile & a half away. Good communication between dispatcher, yardmaster, & crews make for a safe and efficient move... |
