Nice photo of KCS 1112 at the yards. These next photos show a March of Dimes fan trip with
restored R16 New York subway cars. They ran from 179 Street in Jamaica NY to Stillwell Avenue
in Brooklyn NY with F line markings. Later they ran to Astoria NY with EE line markings. Photos taken
on the Astoria elevated line in the late afternoon shadows along 31 Street lettered for the defunct EE line.


Heading northbound toward Ditmars Boulevard in Astoria New York.


Photos taken last week at the NY Transit Store in Grand Central Station.

We return to the Lincoln Nebraska area to find a local passenger train using
leased Alton Railroad equipment to bring travelers home for the holidays.


Consolidation type locomotive built in 1916 by Baldwin Locomotive Works.


First of five passenger cars built in 1911 by Pullman Company.


Filled to capacity with happy customers heading home for Thanksgiving.


Weather is comfortable for this time of year in southeastern Nebraska.


Fertile countryside of Ashland Nebraska has many farms.


Gentle railroad curves are the norm in this region.


Happy Thanksgiving.

PGW steamer doing the honors today.


Colorful orange and green coaches.


Coaches will see plenty of service in New Jersey for December fan trips.

Nice views of those vintage sets Jeff and Frank. Central Pacific set is
another one to enter New Jersey for its annual trek to Bergen Point.


Rounding the curve at Sparta New Jersey.


Bright red coaches sparkle in the late afternoon sunshine.


Will be in the state for the rest of the year.


Fan trips with this set are always popular here.


More vintage sets are on the way.

Another visitor to the Garden State has a lone Union Pacific car headed eastbound toward Bergen Point.


Rounding a curve near Sparta New Jersey.


Sounds of grinding wheels interrupts the peaceful bird calls for a short time.


Water tower usually services larger engines than this diminutive steamer passing by.


Stopped for a photo shoot before departing.


What a beauty.


Union Pacific coach built in 1893.


There she goes.

More vintage sets in the Garden State. This time we see a freight run led by
dependable Central Pacific engine The Jupiter Two at High Bridge New Jersey.


She leads a four car set loaded with presents and delicious food items.


Modified water car carries delicious egg nog and apple cider in climate control containers for fresh taste.


Strasburg Railroad caboose has more presents for the crew at Frankford Yards.

A short distance away we see the freight set pass a small school building.


Some children ignore their studies and marvel at the colorful set as it moves past their school.


Some kids wish they can ride that train with the crew to Bergen Point New Jersey.


Some may even become railroad employees years later.


What a great time to be a kid and daydream.


Reality sets in when their teacher tells them to return to class for studies.


Still some kids gaze at the slow moving little red caboose before returning to their classrooms. Oh well.

At a station stop in Mount Olive New Jersey.

She brings visitors from the Midwest to visit their families here.


Light breeze does not bother the guests who are happy to be here to see their relatives.


Bird songs fill the air in this pretty region.


There she goes.

They keep on coming. PGW Railroad switcher 3233 leads another excursion bound for Bergen Point NJ.


She leads a five car set past scenic Stephens State Park near Mount Olive NJ.


She coasts downgrade during her run thru this gentle terrain.


Many different birds live in this beautiful state park.


Their different songs and melodies are relaxing while the train passes by.


A relaxing brook nearby offers trackside views for picturesque photo opportunities.


A pleasure to visit this attractive area only a short drive away.

The conga line of vintage sets continues. A Colorado visitor is the next one to enter the Garden State.


The engineer eases on the throttle as the train descends the grade outside Hackettstown New Jersey.


Cool crisp autumn air accents the wonderful scents of the many pine trees that fill this forested area.


Blasts of steam whistles echo off the hillside as she passes numerous private crossings.


She drowns out the sounds of chickadees and sparrows as she moves eastward toward Bergen Point.


Three car set filled with happy riders ready to visit family members back east.


Another wonderful day to view trains amid splendid forest scenery.

Two hours later another Colorado visitor enters the scene.


PGW 3233 pulls a lone coach with Rio Grande employees carrying presents for the Frankford crew.


Frankford yards will be at capacity again this year.


Always a festive time in Bergen Point.

The next visitor to the Garden State is from Florida the Sunshine State.


Western and Atlantic train number 45 pulls a six car load.


Many happy riders have made the long trek to visit family members up north.


Some riders also wish to visit the many attractions and holiday displays in Bergen Point.


The train is part of Western and Atlantic's many iron horse ramble fan trips to the northeast.


They always sell out months in advance.


This train has just left the Narrows of Musconetcong Hills and is entering Hackettstown NJ.


Cool crisp pine scented air is certainly different than Florida's warm and humid air mass.


She is finally near the end of her long journey northward.

The Liberty Bell Special from Philadelphia Pennsylvania is our next visitor to reach New Jersey.


Her trip to New Jersey is much shorter than the longer trips the other sets have made here so far.


The striking patriotic colors shine brightly in the late afternoon sunshine here in Mount Olive NJ.


Three combine cars are filled with executives and their families from PGW Philadelphia Railroad Division.


Some people visit family here in central New Jersey. Many sets stop here before reaching Bergen Point.

IHC yes. It has proven to be a reliable piece and a good puller. Over
the years I've had it, it has gone from DRGW to N de M and now to
B&M, analog to DCC, and now back to analog. I must say, I have
always had a weakness for the 44 tonner. The dual motor Bachmann
version was a good running piece (but I burned it up in my first
attempt at DCC installation).

Well here at Bergen Point the new station is in place and neighbors are already gathering to take the train. I haven't even changed the station name signs yet.
