I stopped by Conrail Shared Assets' Paulsboro, NJ, Yard late Sunday morning just in time to see SMS SW9 438 delivering loads from the Valero refinery for interchange to Conrail. Unfortunately, I couldn't get any close shots without tresspassing.

The SW9 was built in 1952 for the Erie RR, is currently owned by the United Railroad Historical Society of NJ, and is leased to short line SMS.
