NJT E8A #4285 - New Jersey Transit |
| Description: |
Originally built as NYC E8A 4080 in August of 1953, the loco survived the NYC/PC collapse and wound up in commuter service for the New Jersey Transit. After that service was over, the loco ended up back in the NYC lightning color scheme with RPCX #4080 as its number as of 2015 based on a photo in the RRPA database.. Unfortunately,no photographer, location or exact day in 1981 was given for the photo. With help from Steve Coraggio & Tom Beckett (see comments below), the location is now identified as South Amboy, NJ. Thanks guys for your help!!! |
