| Description: |
Today's edition of Conrail Shared Assets Operations weekly local SA-31 passes the remnants of the switch into the old Standard Roofing Co building. After more than 2 decades of non-use, mow forces pulled the switch in late 2017 or early 2018 for use elsewhere on the railroad. The Southern is still busy, but it is always sad to see a former customer fade away..... |

| Description: |
A tough day for anyone working outdoors; 12 hours prior, it was 3 degrees at this location. At 4:00 in the pm Eastern time, it has warmed up to 16 degrees (wind chill of 2) along the Southern Secondary as weekly local SA-31 brings 4 cars down the line for 2 customers. Normally a 10-15 car train, the building industry seems to be in a weather induced lull for this normally lumber-laden train..... |

Not knowing what to expect on our first Santa Train arrival in Milford in over 15 years, the crew was overwhelmed with 200 of our (now) closest friends. I did not even have to climb down to flag the Bridge St. crossing, as the Milford Fire Company had all bases covered & we rolled up to the ex-PRR station in grand fashion. Heartwarming is an understatement; this is exactly why we bust our butts rebuilding this scenic line with an all volunteer crew. Thank you Milford! |

Ex-CR 3403 brings the weekly freight train down the CSAO Southern Secondary, just about a half-hour past sunset on a beautiful Autumn day in the Garden State. This line dates back to the late 1850s, and the ex-CNJ Southern Division main still sees freight on it's rails, although not as frequently as it did 50 years ago. |
