These cars are on the Light Rail system that runs between Camden and 
Trenton -- the RIVER Line (as opposed to the River Line which we know as the 
West Shore and home of the wrong-railing doctored DL&W flood detour 
photoshopped creation in a leading rail nostalgia publication).

The photos were taken at the NJ-ARP Patrons luncheon last week which 
included a tour of the 32nd Street Control Complex and the rest. I can't 
tell you about these specific cars, but there are railfans in the transit 
field who appreciate this stuff.

That's why you'll find the Erie, Lackawanna, NYS&W and others honored on the 
HBLRT at one of its stations as well.

Cheers,
Jim
