NJT 4879
Title:  NJT 4879
Description:  NJT 4879 pulls a short New York bound train past the PATH station at Harrison NJ toward the end of its career. This would be the last GG 1 to run, closing the show in October on a"fantrip to Matawan. The PATH trains ran on the outside tracks here-note the third rail. That system was once part of the Pennsy empire, known then as the Hudson & Manhattan, cnnnecting Pennsy stations at Newark and Jersey City with New York starting in 1908.
