hi
i am trying to work out which CNJ units worked to green pond junction. i know that baldwin DR-44-15s were common (although not sure when they gave up the ghost) and i've seen shots of N&W F7s and perhaps B&O (?) F7s at hopatcong jcn so i assume that they would have made it there as well. think i've also seen a shot of one of the CNJ's EMD SWs up there too ... did anything else work there? i believe the SDs would have been too heavy, not sure of other four axle power though.
also did any of the CNJ units trespass onto the NYS&W, either on detour or for any other reason? there is some mention somwhere of some N&W Fs parked beside the station at newfoundland while the crew ate lunch.
regards, ben
