Album Info:SMS Rail Lines is a switching railroad in Southern NJ.They have and use older locomotives, and have a good amount of Baldwin locomotives on their property. I want to thank my friend and fellow railfan Steve Politowski, who set this up. Also thanks to the SMS employees we met and talked to and showed us around their facility. I took a good amount of shots here, they will be added periodically to this album. I would also like to thank freind and fellow Railfan Time Darnelll for his help .
