NJT Train 2117, NJTR 4208 (Conrail Heritage), Woodbine Yard, Spring Valley, New York

Yarding At Sunset. On Saturday, January 11, 2025, New Jersey Transit's Conrail Heritage Unit, GP40PH-2B NJTR 4208 (ex-CR 3191, née-Penn Central 3191, EMD, GP40, 10/1968) led Train 2117 on the Pascack Valley Line. At the end of the run, the train was brought to Woodbine Yard in Spring Valley, New York for overnight storage. While most of the line was separate construction, after leaving Nanuet, it joins with the former Piermont Brach. After leaving the Spring Valley Station, the line separates again, and this yard is on the former Thiells-Mount Ivy Branch of the Erie Railroad (previously New Jersey & New York Railroad). This location might otherwise be unknown but for the photographs of Don Ball Jr. during the K-4 Pacific steam era, when he referred to the Erie as a "storybook railroad".
