Delaware and Raritan River Railroad-General Discussion

I just don't see a reason to divert at Farmingdale from the Southern. Either Southbound or Northbound the route makes no sense to go toward Freehold with traffic for Lakewood or Red Bank.

I’m not 100% sure but I think they’ll run light for the test whenever it happens.

Who says that they'll go onto the Freehold tomorrow? Maybe they only went so far for a reason...

No way they will run Farmingdale-Freehold tomorrow and probably not next week. Fairfield Rd - Yellowbrook Rd may not be completely ballasted yet, certainly hasn't been aligned and tamped even for the first pass. If 1888 was east of Okerson this morning, (pics or it didn't happen) they didn't tread past Fairfield.
I could see engine running light from the Southern to Yellowbrook, to settle the track, but no further.

Yes, that is what I was implying with my post

Stopped at fourth Street due to an SUV parked too close to the train tracks again!!!

C&D employees are in Farmingdale. They might go down the new track…

Just seen a video, the 752 has crossed railroad ave going towards Southard Ave

How can I see the video? Can you please post a link? Thank you.

Not sure I know how to link photos with Facebook to here yet.
