NYS&W MOW Equipment Butler NJ 7/11/11

While driving down Route 23 I came up to the resevoir that parallel's the tracks, to my suprise I actually saw something, MOW equipment! I drove up to Echo Lake Road to see if it was coming down or going up, it was coming down so I made my way down to Butler, I probably could have beat it to here as well as North Gate but I didn't want to risk missing this shot, it's a shot I've wanted to get for sometime but the normal Southbound usually comes too early. Anyway here we see two MOW vehicles and a NYS&W Hi-Railer. I thought they said they were going to Matthew's Ave, but they were only going to Butler. Very friendly crews on these crazy contraptions! The horns were pretty nice on them.

@KyleVideoDesigns Thanks man, I have seen a few on the line before, but only in sidings never running like this!

@21stCenturyLtd Yeah the 99 ran about 40 minutes later than normal, and the WS-6 ran on time. Check them out, they just finished uploading.

@CSXACe Thats weird. Did u see the 99?

[CSXACe]

@jwramc Yeah, the 99 was about 40 minutes later than normal. I usally get it down in Butler around 5:40 and it came at like 6:20.

@21stCenturyLtd Haha, it was I was shocked to see something on the line heading South when the 99 would normally be on the way.

5:15?? The 99 usually passes thru Butler going NORTH around 5:30, right?? I guess they held her back 'til these guys got back? if so- DAMN IT- I was gonna head to Warwick for 8pm in hopes the 99 ran late today. Seems now maybe it was at least that late and I skipped the trip in error. >:(
