After picking up its passengers, the train fully exits Bay Head Yard and accelerates toward its next stop at Point Pleasant Beach.
Recent work on the Manasquan River Bridge closed the bridge one December 2000 weekend.  Here at Manasquan, a train sits at Manasquan station awaiting its next trip. NJT had two trains working between Manasquan and Long Branch.
A cold December 2000 morning, finds F40PH-2CAT 4121 leaving Point Pleasant Beach station and will shortly cross the Manasquan River, which can be seen in the background.
Snow!!  December 22nd saw the first snowfall of the winter.  Freshly fallen snow clings to the tankers stored at NJT's Bay Head Yard.
Snow makes great train photos.  To my surprise, more of NJT's 1200 series M.U. cars have arrived in Bay Head Yard in December 2000. 
Later that afternoon, as more snow begins to fall, a train sits in the yard awaiting its next assignment.
It's now January 2001, and more snow has fallen just before the year ended.  F40PH-2CAT 4121 leaves Bay Head station in a beautiful winter scene.
Cold weather has kept the snow around for several days.  Here Cab Car 5163 exits Bay Head Yard to make its run to Long Branch in January 2001.
The locomotive for the above consist is F40PH-2Cat 4128.
