I passed through Hoboken, going outbound on the HBLR, and I noticed the Alexander Hamilton was sitting in Hoboken, all the way on the south end of the yard, just west of the HBLR platforms. Any idea what it's there for (a turn on the wheel machine, maybe), and how long it'll be there? I'll try and grab some photos from the light rail platforms if I get a chance this weekend.

The Alexander Hamilton was at the MMC this morning sandwiched in with NJT cars in the Layover Yard. Spotted it when passing there this morning running Train 871. It is there for wheel truing before heading back to Maine.
