Passenger special
Title:  Passenger special
Description:  Well, not exactly. NJ Transit had a group of Silverliners rebuilt by ABB Hornell, which were moved to and from the plant via the Tier. It did look like a pocket streamliner. Too bad it couldnt have happened. It would be a really scenic line to ride.
