Last run |
| Description: |
A trip was run over the CNJ just prior to a section of it being pulled up near Phillipsburg to accomodate construction of I 78. The Phillipsburg station area had some issues with clear areas at the station site, so the trip was run to Easton PA, where riders were able to get off for a photo stop. We see the lead unit head on at Easton. |

| Title: |
Good looking train |
| Description: |
The train was posed on the ex LV bridge for photos. The handrails on the ex CNJ bridge are just barely visible to the left of the lead unit, seen through the trees. The LV bridge was ultimately determined to be deficient, while the CNJ bridge was in much better shape, and it was decided that the Lehigh Line would be swung over to the CNJ alignment and over that bridge, and the right of way realigned on the Jersey side. This is the route NS uses today. |

LV station |
| Description: |
Almost. The station here was demolished not long after the end of passenger service in 1961, but the platforms remained. The site was used by Tri State to drop riders for the photo op when they backed the train out onto the brodge, just around the curve out of sight. |
