You can see just how much slower the P40DC accelerates compared to the PL42AC in the second clip. I think that's why NJT got rid of them. They struggled to keep to schedule with longer trains, and they just didn't need them when the ALP-45DP arrived on the scene.
I’ve lived in Florida since 85 but originally from Green Brook so I’m very familiar with the Dunellen area. The Diesel engines, at times, were loud enough to hear them from where I lived.
Excellent Footage!! I was up there in Summer 2011 and it was fun!! I sub'd to you! Looking forward to seeing more of your videos! Keep up the great work
