This video would have been longer, but I took some stuff out of it that just didn't seem to fit.  We are in Little Ferry and Ridgefield Park, in North Jersey.  We start at the grade crossing at Bergen Turnpike, where we see CSX EXC-1, an extra engine move into Little Ferry.  The train consists of ex-LMSX C40-8W 7919, AC44CW 427, C40-8W 7692, and GEVO ES44DC 5458.  Next up, we see New York, Susquehanna, and Western WS-3, as it makes its way lite across Mt. Vernon Street and through Ridgefield Park.  WS-3 will be putting SU-99's train together.  Check out the private varnish that happens to be sitting on one of the tracks; New York Central observation car Hickory Creek, URHS 333, and Louisville and Nashville business car Ohio River.   WS-3 consists of SD40T-2 3012, SD40-2 3018, SD45-2 3618, and SD40T-2 3014.  We then move up Industrial Avenue to the next grade crossing, which is Cross Street.  At this point, WS-3 starts drilling cars and setting them up so they can be built into one train for SU-99.  Enjoy the sound of the rev of the 645 prime movers and the P5 on 3012, as well as the sight of the uncommon LMS C40-8W, and the private cars sitting in Ridgefield Park.  If you have any questions about the video, feel free to message me.  Comments are welcome.  The videos were taken on October 19th, 2009.
