  • Transportation Trips, Excursions, Special Journeys, Outings, Tours, and Milestones In, To, from Or Through New Jersey
    TRANSPORTATION TRIPS, EXCURSIONS, SPECIAL JOURNEYS, OUTINGS, TOURS, AND MILESTONES IN, TO, FROM OR THROUGH NEW JERSEY Bill McKelvey, Editor, Updated to Mon., Mar. 8, 2021 INTRODUCTION This is a reference work which we hope will be useful to historians and researchers. For those researchers wanting to do a deeper dive into the history of a particular event or series of events, copious resources are given for most of the fantrips, excursions, special moves, etc. in this compilation. You may find it much easier to search for the RR, event, city, etc. you are interested in than to read the entire document. We also think it will provide interesting, educational, and sometimes entertaining reading. Perhaps it will give ideas to future fantrip or excursion leaders for trips which may still be possible. In any such work like this there is always the question of what to include or exclude or where to draw the line. Our first thought was to limit this work to railfan excursions, but that soon got broadened to include rail specials for the general public and officials, special moves, trolley trips, bus outings, waterway and canal journeys, etc. The focus has been on such trips which operated within NJ; from NJ; into NJ from other states; or, passed through NJ. We have excluded regularly scheduled tourist type rides, automobile journeys, air trips, amusement park rides, etc. NOTE: Since many of the following items were taken from promotional literature we can not guarantee that each and every trip was actually operated. Early on the railways explored and promoted special journeys for the public as a way to improve their bottom line.

  • Blue Comet Steam Passenger Set at the Very Apex of the Roaring
    Blue Comet Steam Passenger Set At the very apex of the Roaring Twenties, just months before 1929 stock Sets RailKing R-T-R market crash, the Central of New Jersey Railroad inaugurated its Blue Comet service between Jersey City and Atlantic City. Heading the fast, luxurious trains were the CNJ's nearly-new Baldwin-built 4-6-2 Pacifics. Three locomotives — painted in a beautiful blue livery with gold stripes, carrying the train's name on a bronze plate high on the boiler front, and numbered 831, 832 and 833 — cov- ered The Blue Comet's fast schedule along the Jersey shoreline. The train itself was painted in blue to symbol- ize the sea and sky of the Jersey shore, with a cream window band to represent both the shoreline's pristine sand and a comet streak- ing through the heavens. In a departure from normal railroad practice, the cars carried the train name rather than the railroad name on their letterboards. The rolling stock consisted of coaches and diners trailed by an open-plat- form observation, with each car named for a different comet. The Blue Comet's glorious Baldwin Pacific joins the RailKing Line for 2009, trailed by Jersey Central - Blue Comet Steam Passenger accurately decorated, illuminated Blue Comet R-T-R Train Set cars.

  • The Travail of the Blue Comet
    1935 - 2015 VOLUME 46 NUMBER 8 D ISTRICT 2 - CHAPTER WEBSITE : WWW .NRHS 1. ORG AUGUST 2015 The Travail of The Blue Comet If you are a New Jersey Pinelands devotee, you probably have heard the Jersey Central rail line through Chatsworth referred to as the Trail of the Blue Comet . This all reserved air-conditioned train traveled between Jersey City and Atlantic City on a daily basis with baggage cars, deluxe coaches, a dining car, a parlor car, and an observation car all painted Packard Blue with cream trim. Each car carried the name of a famous comet. The train operated during the years 1929 and 1941 and suffered only one major wreck during its fabled tenure. Here, then, is the Travail of The Blue Comet: On August 19, 1939, under dark clouds and stormy conditions, Central Railroad of New Jersey Train No. 4218, the northbound Blue Comet , departed Atlantic City Union Station on the advertised at 3:35 p.m. with engineer Thomas tugging on the throttle after getting a “highball” signal from Conductor Walsh. Thomas tested the airbrakes as normal safety rules dictate and then the train continued on its northward journey as fireman Cinque fed coal into the large firebox of Pacific No. 820. The big locomotive that day towed a five-car train consisting of a combine, a coach, the dining car GIACOBINI, another coach, and the observation car BIELA. The 49 passengers on board for the trip were making themselves comfortable for the journey to Jersey City with the assistance of Train Porter McKonnan.

Archaeological Excavations at the Central Railroad of New Jersey's Lakehurst Shops Cover Page Footnote A substantial debt is owed to Philip Perazio, original principal investigator on the project, and his field crew. Their meticulous work and careful notes made this reanalysis possible. We would also like to thank Peter Primavera, president of the Cultural Resource Consulting Group, who provided generous access to the archaeological collections. Dawn Turner drew Figure 10 and Craig Schaffer, CRCG draftsman, provided illustrations 1 and 7. Jed Levin drew our attention to the similarities between the large quantity of glass recovered at the Lakehurst Shops and in Kristin Stevens' excavations at the Thurmond Depot (46FA214) in West Virginia.

  • THE BLUE COMET “The Seashore's Finest Train”
    1935-2011 VOLUME 42 NUMBER 1 JANUARY 2011 THE BLUE COMET “The Seashore’s Finest Train” The Blue Comet has been referred to as the “Seashore's Finest Train”. Idealized by CNJ president R. B. White in 1928, this train whisked passengers from Jersey City to Atlantic City in about three hours. The Blue Comet would take NY&LB trackage to Red Bank, then follow the Southern Division Main Line to Winslow Junction, where it would travel over the Atlantic City Railroad's (Reading Railroad) tracks to Atlantic City. Three brand new G3 Pacific locomotives were assigned to the train; numbers 831, CLASS G3 PACIFIC NO. 832 DEPARTING ATLANTIC CITY WITH TRAIN NO. 4266. CIRCA 1936 832 and 833. The CNJ totally refurbished sixteen cars for Blue Comet service, inside and out. Each train consisted of a baggage car, combine- smoker, coaches, and an observation car. The diner accompanied the early morning trip to Atlantic City and the evening return to Jersey City. The colors chosen for the Blue Comet were: Packard Blue, which represented the sky; Jersey Cream, for the sandy coastal beaches; Royal Blue, for the sea. Even the locomotives were painted for Blue Comet service. The train's lifespan was from 1929 to 1941, but its legacy continues today. Each car was named for a comet as follows: Diner: Giacobini; Combines: Halley, Encke; Baggage cars: Olbers, Barnard; Coaches: Tuttle, Holmes, Westphal, D’Arrest, Faye, Spitaler,Winnecke, Brorsen; Observation cars: DeVico, Biela, Tempel. There were three factors behind the creation of the Blue Comet. First, was to eliminate passenger service south of Winslow Junction, and replace rail service with bus connections.
