Last summer Thomas the Tank Engine decided to go on holiday down the Jersey shore. There he met some new friends on the Cape May Seashore Lines. It was also the first steam engine down the shore since May 1968. Still pictures at http://www.trainweb. org/phillynrhs/RPOTW .html
During the Railworks project in 1993, SEPTA ran a train each morning from Doylestown to Philadelphia using their Bombardier coaches and a U34CH diesel borrowed from NJT
The recent addition of traffic lights around the two main railroad crossings in Lansdale PA have frequently caused vehicular traffic in the borough to stop for long periods of time while trains move in and out of the station
A couple of kids in the shadows on the left of the video start by throwing rocks at the passing engines, then start shoving things like concrete, milk cartons and tree branches under the wheels of the train as it speeds by, many of items splinter into projectiles that fly past the kids.
