Approaching the tunnel
Title:  Approaching the tunnel
Description:  There was a connection on the River Line south of North Bergen yard to the old Erie tunnels that once were the access to the Jersey City terminal, passing under the DLW and the south end of the palisades. SEOI is about to enter, and will connect on the other side with the National Docks Secondary to get into Oak Island with its 69 cars.

X2000 meet BUOI
Title:  X2000 meet BUOI
Description:  In photo that has "Erie" written all over it-note the space for the center siding, and the Erie "traffic light" signal in the distance, the X2000 meets BUOI just east of town. The only thing better would be a couple of EL SD45s-or maybe SD60s by this time-on the freight.

Fogged
Title:  Fogged
Description:  The day was gloomy enough, but that camera had a light leak, so the rear of this 53 car BUOI approaching MP 253 is a bit fogged.
