On the last day of August, I ventured over to Elizabeth in an attempt to chase Conrail's BY-1 over to Staten Island, NY from Bayway. I'd had this chase on my list for at least a couple years, and with the 1700 in Bayway for the week I gave it a try. Unfortunately, I was only able to get one shot on the Island due to me severely underestimating the amount of traffic I'd run into crossing over from Jersey. However I was able to get a neat view of the train returning back over the Arthur Kill Lift Bridge from Staten Island from atop the Goethals Bridge in Elizabeth with the AK Bridge, Howland Hook, New York City, and Elizabeth in the background. I also got them pulling and spotting cars on the lead to Eport before heading over to Staten Island as an added bonus, which you'll see first in the video. Enjoy!

Fantastic views from the far end of the state from me. I hate city traffic but I love the atmosphere for photography!

Sick Catches man!! As a Staten Islander, I am VERY impressed with ur shots and the fact that a HU was in My very hometown!! I should say however, that this wasn't the last time either,because I saw NS 4001 working Arlingtion Yard and depart leading. Alos, what radio feed do thhey use for Staten Island and how can I acess that feed on broadcastify?

Thank you! They use 160.935 Conrail South Jersey, you can also pick them up on the Central Jersey Freight Railroads online feed sometimes.

Awesome video!! I sometimes hear the horn blast from Arlington yard. Was just curious are there any scanner frequencies to pick up the freight train. I do hear when they are closing and opening Arthur kill bridge.!thanks again .

Thanks! Use 160.955, that's the channel for the Chemical Coast. You'll also hear South Jersey talking to trains on that channel.

Love this video of the ex EL SD45-2’s. Do you know what trains usually have the SD45-2’s on point? I might be visiting NJ in the spring.
@RailWatchers
@RailWatchers Год назад
Thanks! This train (BY-1) will more often than not have a pair of them. Other than that it's hit or miss because most of the routes they used to run on travel over NJT or Amtrak and they don't have PTC that's compatible with theirs, so nowadays they are mostly confined to yards. The yard in Port Reading usually has a 6 axle at all times and every now and then a 45 gets sent there which can be easily shot. However in the spring Conrail runs a ballast train across the system with a 6 axle. Again, like Port Reading its possible one gets assigned to it. Stop by the channel again should you come out here and I might be able to pin point some for you.
