What's there to figure out? The P indicates a protect train. The normal train probably broke down in that area before it could make Somerton. A protect was called out and picked up passengers from Somerton-West Trenton.

I have also seen these trains as well as others without the "p". Some i don't understand. Here are the screen shots of train view, maybe someone here can help decipher the meaning.
