How many people out there model NJT, NJ Transit, New Jersey Transit whatever you call it?

[Bapou]

Metro how do you re-do those cars? paint over the NJT paint?

[Bapou]

I got mine from my LHS but Trainworld/Trainland (they advertise in Model Railroader) stocks them

[zxb1]

Where do you get the walthers cab or coaches from. They're very hard to find in njt schemes, or they're always on back order ?

I found a LHS in Piscataway, NJ (The Model Railroad Shop) that had some; I also saw some at The Red Caboose in Manhattan. It looks like the cabs are in stock on Walthers.com; no trailers, though.

Thank you, Ever since I bought an f40 spectrum with njt scheme I could'nt find the cars to go with it. Thanks !

Again, anyone else???

BTW Imperial Hobby Productions makes GP40-FH and Comet III shells. The Comet III shells fit on the walthers frames (with some modificationg says IHP) here is their link: Imperial Hobby Productions

Anyone else?

It wasn't a ban you could get permits for taking pictures, also now you can just take pictures as long as you have ID becauese NJT police will probably question you. This is what the NJT police said when called. And YES it is legal to model NJT otherwise walthers and Bachman would have to stop producing there models in NJT paint.

Cool the U34CH I got was on Ebay a few months ago there was one about two weeks ago also. The NJT version I have never seen on EBay since I started looking there in November.

Is it legal to model NJT?  They had a photo ban would think they would ban any models and confiscate any layouts as terrorist planning modules?

[METRO]

I model a fictonal mass trainsit line in a fictional metropolis in Ontario. A few of the horizon cars on my line are supposed to be ex-NJT and have not been repainted yet only re-lettered.

Cheers!

Cool! thats alot of NJT equip you have! tell me is the U34CH NJT or NJ DOT? I have the NJ DOT version which is nw at TTX for a decoder install.

 It's the NJT paint; I'd like to get one in the NJDOT paint, maybe sometime down the line.

Imperial Hobby Productions makes a GP40-FH shell which I might get also. Im trying to get an ALP 44 on EBay. As said in my first post I have a Bach Spec with ESU. Hope to hear from anyone with commuter railroad models especialy NJT. Have fun railroading!!!

Bapou,

Here's a NJT prototype you can model: NYS&W 142 at Towaco Station, NJ

[ElectricMotive]

I guess you could say I model NJT; I don't have a Transit layout to run on, but I've picked up a bunch of NJT models: Atlas U34CH, a couple of the Bachmann F40PH-2s, and a bunch of the Walters Comet coaches (three cabs, four coaches).

I've also got a lot of stuff around for when I finally get started on kitbashing; I want to end up with a couple of GP40FH-2s (bashed from an Athearn GP40-2), an ALP-46 (bashed from a Roco DB101), F40PH-2CATs (the F40s after they had a separate HEP motor added), and turn some of the cars into Comet III/IVs. Someday, I hope to kitbash a GP40P/GP40PH, and I have a lot of stuff that I could paint up as NJT: some other road Horizon cars and a couple of undec ALP-44s (the NJT factory-painted ones fetch too high a price on eBay for me).

[Bapou]

Cool guy's, I hope to hear more from anyone modeling mass transit

[tgindy]

While I don't model this area, a Model Trains Magazine Index search found quite a few who do...

[MisterBeasley]

I do subways, but it's the freelance Moose Bay Transit Authority, loosely (loose as a Moose, in fact) based on the NYC and Boston systems in the 1960's.  There are a few other mass-transit types around, too.  Give 'em some time and they'll come out of their tunnels.

[Bapou]

Com'on anyone???

[Bapou]

How many people out there model NJT, NJ Transit, New Jersey Transit whatever you call it? I wanna here from you all. I have a Bachman Spectrum F40PH with ESU LokSound it sounds awesome!!! Also a NJ DOT U34CH. With three NJT comet's (two cabs though) I hope to get an ALP 44 soon. Oh and NJ DOT modelers I wanna here from you too
