A photo which I have taken during the ascent to our first accommodation, the "Zupalseehütte". The weather was still quite bad but some first rays of sunlight had found their way to the distant mountains, e.g. the Großvenediger, with its summit veiled in clouds.

NJ Transit's Atlantic City Express Service (ACES) was a short-lived inter-city train that operated between New York Penn Station and Atlantic City with only one intermediate stop at Newark. The operation was funded by the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) and three casinos in partnership. The CRDA is a state agency, as is NJ Transit, so essentially New Jersey taxpayers paid for it all, regardless of which agency funded it. Needless to say, the service was a failure and was in operation for only three years (2009-2011). The consist was certainly unique, operating with an ALP-44 electric on one end and a former Amtrak P40DC diesel on the other. The ALP powered the train between New York and Frankford Junction PA where the diesel took over for the Atlantic City leg of the journey. Push-pull operation was necessitated by the reverse move at Frankford. The train seen here was operating during the final summer of service, with 4803 leading through Edison, NJ and 4405 shoving from the rear. The 8 cars specially equipped for this service would be sent back to Bombardier to be rebuilt as regular commuter coaches. The P40DCs would put in a few more years of service on commuter assignments post-2011 before being sold to the State of Connecticut (CT Rail).
