The Clocker looks like a ghost how it fades into the shot at 0:35.

i know that i see NJt ACL trains running from 30th street to frankford junction all the time .

Where is that Septa Push Pull fleet going? And what run is it operating on (normal express service or other)?

[trainfan1143]

@seClip9 it was going to Temple University station in Philadelphia and is an express train. SEPTA uses their push-pulls for express trains only.

but would be eaiser if NJT trains go from newark,NJ penn station to 30th street station?

[ucvgabe]

oh XD my bad sry

[ohiotransit9]

That's OK, I would of probally did the same thing if I didn't know crap about Amfleet or Amtrak Scheme

[56yuoi]

does NJT trains still go through after trenton into 30th street now besides the Atlantic-city line?

[oaksmodelrr]

NJT currently runs north of Morrisville PA to NYC and from 30th Street Station to Frankford Jct on the way to Atlantic City. There are deadhead equipment moves between from Meadowlands Maintenance Center (MMC) and 30th St. but no revenue service. That will change when NJT starts operating the ACES train from NYC to AC early next year (technically the train is paid for by the casinos with NJT power and crew).

[sarginto3]

why does the amtrak train have a njt locomotive

[oaksmodelrr]

The engines were purchased in anticipation of NJT taking over the Amtrak Clocker runs and were used from Philadelphia to NYC until October 2005. The new Clockers operated by NJT only run from Trenton north.
