On 6/22 I took the TCA Convention tour of the NJ Transit Light and Heavy Rail Maintenance Shops. We first toured the Light Rail Shop in Jersey City and then took a private Hudson-Bergen Light Rail car to the Hoboken (Lackawanna) terminal. We then toured the Meadoes Heavy rail Maintenance Shop in Kearney.

Here are some pics I took.

Great shots Chris,

Enjoyed the TCA New Jersey Hi-Railers tour on Friday night. I really liked your Looong automobile train, and Vinny with the fully loaded Sabbet's Hotdog cart complete with sauerkraut and mustard was the bomb for us hungry TCAers who missed out on dinner due to traffic delays leaving Manhatten.

Thanks to you and all your compadres,

Great photos Chris, I'll bet that was an interesting day! A very interesting look inside what looks to be a sizable facility.

I really liked the dwarf turntable, never saw something like that before.
