Along the Lehigh Line found me seeing only a few trains. Mind you, I’m not complaining since low humidity, sunny skies and a nice breeze made this a nice day to be trackside and a welcome change from the oppressive heat and humidity NJ has had. In time sequence, those trains through Manville were as follows:
CSX 702 @ 7:30- CSX 5485 and CSX 5261 powered this short train of empty municipal waste containers heading back for refills.
NS 21M @ 7:40- would have NS 9140, NS 2646, UP 4438 and NS ???? for motive power.
CSX local, symbol unknown, @ 8:56- NS 3022 and PRR 3001 (GP40-2, ex-CR 3278, ex-RDG 3674) headed east with no cars in tow.
NS 64J @ 9:00- with NS 9366 and NS 9922 in charge, more empty waste containers were headed east for refills.
CSX MA2 @ 9:05- CSX 4426 and PRR 5286 (GP38-2, ex-CR 8085) would also head east with no cars in tow.
At Three Bridges (NJ): NS 24V intermodal @ 12:22- had NS 9790 and BNSF 4497 for motive power on a relatively short COFC train.
