Finally got to photograph the local on this branch. NS 5608(GP38-2)
was switching tank cars at Oasis foods yesterday afternoon.
I followed the train as it headed south down the branch cars foward,
on its way back to the Lehigh Valley mainline.
Here is the 1st of 5 tank cars entering the Hillside Ave. crossing
with the conductor along for the ride. The cars carry vegetable oil.

here is the train crossing Liberty Ave. near the Rt 22 overpass.

The train sits right off Rt.22 on a siding along the LV mainline.
Its waiting for clearance on to the main where it will then head
East to the small yard near NK tower. You can see this yard
from the corner of Frelinghuysen Ave. and E. Peddie St. in Newark
