Newark, New Jersey - a few bonuses passed by while waiting for the 'main event', including this test train. More in the video.

Railmen for Children, 2025. The annual tradition continued for its 43rd year in 2025 as NJTR 4100 (GP40PH-2) and NJTR 4208 (Conrail, GP40PH-2B) teamed up to bring the 8-car train round trip from Hoboken to Denville, New Jersey, on Friday, December 5, 2025. NJ Transit employees plan and work all year to create a special environment for the attendees of this event. While on board, the children were served lunch, entertained by characters, and given special gifts. Alstom Comet V cab car NJTR 6075 is seen with a special drumhead affixed as it passes through Denville, New Jersey, while returning to Hoboken, New Jersey. Lots of Jingle Bells on the horn! - check out the video!

Railmen For Children's mission statement:
Every year Railmen for Children invites local schools and organizations consisting of less fortunate and exceptional children on a Santa train. Teachers ask the children to write Christmas wish lists to Santa and those letters are delivered to Railmen for Children. Railmen for Children does everything in its power to grant the wishes and Santa delivers the gifts on the train ride.
