NJ Transit North Jersey Coast Line 3326 Head End Ride, ALP45-DP 

You did god’s work. Nobody, and I mean nobody can even dream of having a driver’s cab view, with only the mercy of the driver and the company. I personally can’t thank you enough for just this one video.

This is an outstanding video! A must see for ALL railfans. Great video quality and great jazz. Keep 'em coming!

I had no idea the transition from diesel to electric was actually totally automated like that. I figured you would need to manually shut down the diesels and raise the pantograph, but I guess that shows how far technology has come! Love the joke about the Susquehanna. That was a good one that only railroad men would get. 19:06 Look at that old tidewater tank car! Didn't know they still had any of them around in those parts. Actually, I only know of 2 offhand... One is at Strasburg Railroad and the other is at Pine Creek Railroad. Might be one at New Hope and Ivyland, not sure if it's a TWOX. They used to use them as fuel cars on the CNJ.

Just a word of advice, a video like this does much better without the music.

This is a great vid . Thx for w upload and shoutout to the engineer . This has giving me great insight on working for njtransit to become a engineer

Seems like a interested job! Love the scenery!!

That was a fantastic production, thanks for sharing.

That was a really cool ride along Jerry! Really neat seeing where all it travels 😊🔥👏👏👏

One of the best train videos I seen in awhile

Thank you grew up the north Jersey coast, refreshing not having the delay at South Amboy to change to electric, a great trip down memory lane.

Very, very well done! Thank you for sharing!

Ahhh yes yes the north jersey costal line what would I do with out it been taking this train every day for the past 3 years never gets old

This is amazing! Thank you for posting this video!

Delightful ! Thank you for posting .

There a version of this video with just the raw audio and no music?

I wish i could go on a cab ride on NJ Transit's newest locomotive the ALP45A it would be an great experience

Cool I always wanted to ride in the cab of a locomotive.

Fantastic video but background music annoying. Would like to hear the actual road noise.

I love that you were able to get video from inside the cab, but please with the music. I want to hear the bell and the horn and the sounds inside the locomotive, not some 80's classical music.

awaiting my call to take my medical exam for NJT LETP ! really hope one day ill be doing this route ! BTW, you're crossing the naveskink river @ 8:54 not the shrewsbury..awesome video though !

This was an excellent video and the music was perfect 👍👌

Great video! Thanks!

Awesome Video

Well done! Thanks!!

Thanks.... love the music too !!!

Really enjoyed this

Great video!

Awesome video, I for one enjoyed the Jazz

I ❤ NJ Transit

9:20 I love the horn when he blew for the crossing

Fantastic

My dad is a conductor on the Port Jervis to Hoboken line

Cool. No stop at Secacus on the way to NYC Penn Station

That K5LA is very sweet.. but it sounds like me trynna get spit out of my throat lmaooo

Very unique video!

Regarding that dual-mode train in front of you it's actually coming in from exit 18 Annandale station I-78 to New York Penn

NJ Transit ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

What exactly is the music between 0:36 and 5:40, and between 7:50 and 9:17?

Amazing video . One technical operative question ? : this train can be active the pantograph in the same time with the diesel motor electric group in on , both in operations .....or will can be change your configuration in motion ......

Fred mattison works for metro north he was working for njt a long time.

That is the train that came to my hometown

I remember growing up in point pleasant it was the Pennsylvania railroad

He's a nice engineer

My morning train to newark

Look closely when there’s an outside view of the train near long branch it’s 4532 so the video is from another video

This is a good video in spite of two gripes: 1) I enjoy modern big band jazz music, but in this case it was very distracting and unnecessary. 2) The constant use of the zoom lens in the first half of the video was annoying to watch; it "slowed down" the train. The cab views were interesting and I learned a lot about how these dual-mode locomotives are operated. The engineer seems like a cool guy.

How where you aloud?

Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet

where is that yard at the end? always wondered where they go after penn station

The rolling stocks look much more modern than the MBTA vehicles.

that is so freaking cool...how'd you get into the locomotive?

Could you upload a version without the music on please?

What does Fred do when he gets to New York?

We need part two

I wish the music didnt exist, but very good

i used to live around there

An old video, for the most part I did Like it, but the music was may to LOUD and I listen to 40s Junction on SiriusXm

9:10 automatic horn?

Europe: We have better breaks. US: We don’t want to miss a stop!

it would be better if there wasnt jazz music blasting the whole video

Look the same coaches that Marc train has.

I *HATE* the background music! Let me listen to that K5LA and E-bell!!!!!

Why this train driver is wearing gloves? Very strange looking, I must say. Greetings from european train driver.

Please turn off the music. It ruined the video. What were you thinking

bro the music is unbearable. we want to hear the motors, horns, bells, and track noise as the train runs.

Covering the beautiful sound of the engine with music.... What a waste

Turn off the music plz. Great video but horrible music to play along with the train ride.

Terrible music !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get rid of the music, please.

That fuddy duddy music is unbearable. Should morbid obesity, with its increased risk of apnea/blood sugar blackouts and sudden death from heart attack or stroke, be considered an operational as well as medical hazard?

Awesome video, thanks!

Great video!
