Description:  An ex EL U34CH waits its turn out of the station in Hoboken. Note the activity around the station. On a nearby track is U34CH 4167 in the then new "disco"scheme, and a little farther over are some of the DLW MUs that got the orange treatment.

Not your average EL meet.
Title:  Not your average EL meet.
Description:  RDCs were never part of the EL world-the ones here came from PRSL-so to see then meeting a train of the usual EL equipment here at Suffern, is, well, unusual. Otherwise the shot is classic EL, four track main, station house on the left next to the eastbound platform. Just need a PO Ordinary rolling down the inside track toward Croxton behind a mix of GP 7's and RS 3's.

Numbers from the Past
Title:  Numbers from the Past
Description:  Today I was lucky enough to acquire a pair of number boards from a long retired and scrapped NJ Transit U34CH. While these boards are not the originals it was delivered to the Erie Lackawanna with in 1971 they still hold significance to me as these are the engines that as a kid blew my mind with their strange sounds and excessive smoke. The 4163 was one of the many U34CHs that wore its original "Blue Bird" NJDOT paint for its entire service career. It only received a handful of paint mods when its ownership was transferred to NJ Transit in 1983. These small changes included painting the the nose "platinum mist" silver and applying a large NJ Transit logo and the removal of the NJDOT blue arrow logo. The fate of this engine seems to be a mystery as to exactly when and where it was scrapped. It appears all that remains of it are these boards unless other collectors were lucky enough to get the horn, bell and the other two boards. I posed the two boards in some saucy afternoon light at HX Drawbridge. A piece of former Erie Lackawanna track this engine crossed probably hundreds of thousands of times in its career. In the background a modern NJ Transit PL42AC crosses the Hackensack River. Time will tell if the retirement of these modern locomotives will be a sorely felt by railfans as the U34s was.

New paint
Title:  New paint
Description:  By the early 80s, New Jersey was starting to get a cohesive look to their rail operations, which up til then had been a hodge podge of predecessor equipment and operations run by Conrail under contract to NJDOT. Once an agreement was worked out for New Jersey to run them directly, they started to work on a single image. One of the features of that image was this paint scheme, commonly known as the "disco" scheme for its bright stripes. It was not well received by fans, who preferred something more like youd see on a real railroad, and not a bus. Their protestations were to no avail, as NJ Transit is still using a modification of it today. Meanwhile, heres an ex EL U34 in disco dress leaving Hoboken.
