A closer view shows the third car resting against the power company transmission line support; if not for that support, these 2 cars may have suffered a worse fate. |

Thankfully the speed limit on this line is 10mph, and no cargo hit the ground during this incident. A testimony to the strength of these cars and the strapping system used to secure the load. |

With the 3 railcars back on the rails, the Cranemasters equipment is loaded and ready to go the next morning. Working through the night, the crew is surely in a local motel this morning grabbing some much deserved shut-eye... |

A nice ending to an ugly situation just a day ago. The SA-31 crew is back on track (no pun intended) as they continue their appointed rounds with the remaining 7 cars for delivery to Lakewood, where the 4452 will re-unite with sister CSX 4432 for the trip back to Browns Yard in Sayreville sometime this weekend. |

The SA-31 crew took the front half of the train (7 cars) and headed south to Lakewood for the drill. The Conrail track gang is working feverishly to repair the track because right now, there are 2 CSX locomotives land-locked on this stub-end line. |

The last of about 20 new ties and a couple of sections of stick rail are attended to by the Conrail track department. This was no quick fix, but this hard working crew completed the job efficiently and right on time. |
