The Night Before The Pacific Express. On the night of August 4, 2011, Juniata Terminal E8A JTCX 5711 (née-Pennyslvania Railroad 5711, EMD, 10/1952) was sitting at the NJ Transit Hoboken Terminal in Hoboken, New Jersey. The next day, the train would depart over the Bergen County Line and cover four states in four days on a trip to Youngstown, Ohio that would return to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with a consist of seven private cars. The name "Pacific Express" might seem odd for an excursion that would only see the Atlantic, but it was taken from an Erie Railroad Jersey City (later Hoboken), NJ to Chicago, IL train of the same name as most of the "rare milage" parts of trip were on former Erie trackage.
