Leaving on the train to NYC from Point Pleasant Beach, NJ
The diesel electric engine that pulled the PPR commuter train out of Bay Head, NJ that I used infrequently to NYC would be replaced by a GG1 electric engine at South Amboy to make the run into Penn Station. The GG1 was in service for nearly 50 years, and was retired years after the PPR ceased to exist. Read the previous post for more info.
