NEWARK, N.J. — People equate New Jersey to many things. To me, it’s all about trains.
Whenever in New Jersey, I take the opportunity to travel by train. It’s one of the few places in the country where you can reasonably travel via train and make it somewhere you might want to reach.
That means it is also an ideal place for some railfanning. I took these pictures in March 2018 in Newark, N.J., Secaucus, N.J., and Montvale, N.J.

New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy has nominated a vice president at AECOM, one of the world’s largest transportation and infrastructure companies, to serve as the next executive director of N.J. Transit.
A Congressman from New Jersey has proposed federal legislation he says will improve railroad safety and responders’ ability to communicate in the event of an accident.
Last week, the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen’s rank and file voted to reject the tentative contract that its leaders had reached with NJ Transit in March, setting in motion the potential for a strike at 12:01 a.m. on May 16.
