Es waiting for the rush |
Description: |
One of the things I would do in that era was take either the PATH train to Newark, which yielded a good view of the storage tracks for the commuter trains, or ride the ex DLW out of Hoboken to Newark, which had a view of the engine tracks at Kearny. This day, it was a PATH trip. Going through Harrison, there was this pair of Es on a train that would go to Bay Head during the evening rush |

OIBU has an E unit behind the road power today. Unlike the EL, which used them in freight service, though mostly on the west end of the railroad, this one is in tow to a scrap dealer. |
