NJDOT E8A #4272 - New Jersey Dept of Transportation
Title:  NJDOT E8A #4272 - New Jersey Dept of Transportation
Description:  Here is another view taken by an unknown railfan of New Jersey Dept of Transportation E8A #4272 as it sat in the Bay Head, NJ, yard. Originally built as PRR E8A #5702A, this loco has bounced from one roster to another making it a true "boomer" loco. It was last photographed for the RRPA database in 2022 still wearing the EL paint scheme it picked up along the way. EMD sure did build long lasting locomotives!

Description:  A pair of E 8s, repainted in the scheme on ELs U34s, which NJDOT used for a few years til NJ Transit took over and implemented the disco scheme, lead a stainless coach that has the sign of a previous era-the PC herald. Four years after Conrail, there were still a lot of cars so adorned.
