I happened to be out in Duncannon, PA yesterday and saw 507 headed West. Not sure if anyone caught it when it was through NJ.

Ben, did you chase them to Tuckahoe? I'm guessing that the box cars were not for CMSL and they were pulling some hoppers or tank cars?

Glenn, I did not chase 51. I literally came across them headed south as I was returning home from a stay in Cape May. The box cars were more than likely a previous pick-up, and were simply along for the ride to Tuckahoe.
