NS 5311
Title:  NS 5311
Description:  Standing on hallowed ground, in a railroad sense; this location, known as Eatontown Jct. more than 100 years ago, was where the Raritan & Delaware Bay RR (later to be part of the CNJ) first laid rails in 1860. The photographer is standing on top of the remnants of old ties which once held the rails of the passing siding which facilitated the connection to Long Branch, NJ, due east of here on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. Today, the original R&DB RR is still operating as the Conrail Shared Assets Operations Southern Secondary, some 157 years later, and hosts a once-weekly train, symbol SA-31, seen here heading south (timetable west) towards Lakewood, NJ.

Title:  NS 5634
Description:  'Shadow boxing' her way down the Conrail Shared Assets Southern Secondary, two 38-2's built for the Penn Central lead this week's WPSA-31 on a beautiful Spring afternoon. 19 cars for three customers on this line is a beautiful thing; several years ago we thought we might lose this line dating back to the 1850's....
