Es to the ready track
Title:  Es to the ready track
Description:  A pair of E8s make their way from the engine house to the pocket track beyond the station to await the next GG 1 powered trains arrival. The paint scheme on the lead unit is just one of several NJT tried during the early 80s, though the nose lifting lugs give this away as an ex Pennsy unit.
