Erie Debut. On Wednesday, November 8, 2023, NJ Transit 4210 (GP40PH-2B, Erie Railroad Heritage) made its first road trips in its new heritage paint. While neither Erie nor Erie Lackawanna Railroad owned any GP40s, the paint scheme was adapted from Alco/EMD models of that era. The present day Pascack Valley and Bergen/Main/Port Jervis lines were a part of the Erie Railroad and became part of Erie Lackawanna, Conrail and later NJ DOT and NJ Transit upon its inception. It was appropriate that it made its initial round trip to Port Jervis, seen here passing through Secaucus, New Jersey on Train 64 with the former Harmon Cove Station and present day Norfolk Southern Croxton Yard in the midground and the Freedom Tower in New York City in the background.
From a hint of "Bee" (NKP 765), colorful "Bees" (KCS), "Bees" w/ "attitude", to "Bees" that "sting" your eyes, in their own way they have "Bee" on display! Equipment that "Buzzes" with Yellow & Black colors! ("Bees" can still "Bee" entering this "hive"!)
