Just trading my Jersey. NJ TRANSIT GP40PH-2B 4209 (ex-CR 3223 GP40, neé PC 3223) is one of many former freight units that was rebuilt by then Conrail's Altoona Shops for passenger service in the early 1990s, but had been working the same area for many years moving cargo. Handing in its blue and white paint, it returned to New Jersey with HEP and disco stripes to enjoy a second career in commuter service. It is seen here on the afternoon of May 11, 2018 leading train 1623 on the former New Jersey and New York Railroad (currently the NJT/MTA Metro-North Railroad Pascack Valley Line) in Westwood, New Jersey.
