Besides NJ Transit engines, I have seen a variety of others, including Conrail, CNJ, Norfolk-Southern, and others.<\/span><\/p>\n But one day last month, I saw a northbound train with a colorful engine I had never seen before. I took note of the time and a few days later, it returned at the same time…………but NOW, I was ready with my camera:<\/span><\/p>\n It was impossible to read anything on that engine, but I knew it had to come back\u2026..and stop.<\/span><\/p>\n I found an online schedule. Between that and my pictures from the free trip I took on the Line last September, I was able to figure out when it would be heading back southbound and stopping at the Anderson St. Station, a block to the right of the above picture\u2019s location.<\/span><\/p>\n At the appointed time, I was across the tracks from the station, so I could get the engine and the station in an image. But I forgot one thing\u2026\u2026\u2026\u2026..<\/span><\/p>\n These trains don\u2019t turn around for the return trip. Northbound, the engine\u2019s in front, pulling. Southbound, it\u2019s in back, pushing. As the train pulled into the station, I was frantically run……..er, jogging<\/em> the length of the train northward, hoping to reach the engine before the train left the station in a minute or so.<\/span><\/p>\n I got there just<\/em> before it started moving and took this PANO shot. I had no room to back up (and no time if I did<\/em>) to take a regular shot (click twice to fully enlarge):<\/span><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/iaintjustmusic.bobleafe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/1-IMG_4769-6-4-25-WM.jpg\")
