November 14, 2014 in Honor of Veterans Day This Week, My Thanks
Dear All: November 14, 2014 In honor of Veterans Day this week, my thanks go out to the men and women of yesterday, today and tomorrow who have and who will sacrifice so much for the U.S.A. It seems to me, the train world really comes alive during the holidays to help us remember years gone by. So many of you volunteer your time to set up and run a layout at various locations, how amazing it is because you are touching the lives of so many in a positive and healthy way. Bravo! I would love to include YOUR story with the next e‐ blast that connects your family memories with the holiday season and the world of trains. I think it would be great to share these stories over the next several weeks leading up to the end of 2014! What did you say? You have pictures to go along with the story, well send them along to me and as long as they are family friendly I’ll share them with those that read the eblast. As a reminder, the eblasts and attachments will be placed on the WB&A website under the “About” tab for your viewing/sharing pleasure http://www.wbachapter.org/2014%20E‐ Blast%20Page.htm The attachments are contained in the one PDF attached to this email in an effort to streamline the sending of this email and to ensure the attachments are able to be received. If you need a PDF viewer to read the document which can be downloaded free at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrviewer/acrvd nld.html. -
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. -

Philadelphia Chapter, Nrhs Reschedules ‘Farewell to the Faithful Silverliners’ Excursion
NATIONAL RAILWAY HISTORICAL SOCIETY PHILADELPHIA CHAPTER, INC. NEWS RELEASE – February 1, 2012 Contact: R. L. Eastwood, Jr., National Director Post Office Box 7302 Philadelphia, PA 19101-7302 215-947-5769 E-mail: [email protected] PHILADELPHIA CHAPTER, NRHS RESCHEDULES ‘FAREWELL TO THE FAITHFUL SILVERLINERS’ EXCURSION Over its 75-year history, Philadelphia Chapter, National Railway Historical Society has operated many different and successful rail excursions. Many of these trips have been multiple-unit electric commuter rail excursions over the suburban routes radiating from Center City Philadelphia, PA. In the 1970’s and 1980’s, the Chapter bid farewell to the Pennsylvania Railroad’s “red” MP54 MU cars (albeit painted SEPTA red, white and blue), the Reading Company’s “green” cars, the original 1958-vintage Pennsy Budd Pioneer III MU’s and a whole host of trips with the modernized ex-Reading 1964-vintage “Blueliners”. On Sunday, May 6, 2012, another chapter in this long history will come about as the 1963-vintage Budd Silverliner II and 1967-vintage St. Louis Silverliner III cars ride off into the sunset, with more than 70 Rotem Silverliner V cars now on SEPTA property and taking over. The original fleet of 75 of the Budd and St. Louis cars is now down to 44, and this will most likely be the last chance for a trip of this type. In spite of some ongoing major construction along SEPTA’s routes, the Chapter has been able to schedule a trip covering the Chestnut Hill West, Cynwyd, Fox Chase and Norristown Lines, where numerous photo opportunities can be provided. -
