A classic at Newark
In July 1981, classic former Pennsylvania Railroad GG1 electric no.4884 in service with the New Jersey Transit Authority is seen at Newark, NJ with a westbound Amtrak service bound, if memory serves correctly, for Washington. The GG1 was covering for a failed Amtrak locomotive.
I was staying with friends in New York for a few days and made a brief afternoon excursion to Newark in the hope of seeing one of these, what were then, rare beasts and ended up with two, the headlight of the second is illuminating the carriage sides.
