I am hoping to head down there on a nice day and take some pics of NJT stuff like the ALP45DP and ALP46 locos.

The dual modes are getting more frequent on the Main and Bergen County lines and once in a while the pascack valley lines (diesel lines only), the 46's you can't miss'em, NJT has all the ALP44's in storage in port morris.

You might even get lucky with catching the NYSW's westbound road freight depending on what night your in the area. They've been running them with the SD60's they just got from full rebuild.

I just need to find a safe location to take pics. I know that some areas are safer then others and don't feel like getting harassed by the police either.

A nice spot is Ho-Ho-kus and Waldwick stations. At Ho-Ho-kus the outbound platform you can view them coming up the triple track around a curve. Waldwick station at the northern end of the parking lot is wide open, i've been there myself. Ridgewood is also nice but they just rebuilt the entire station so i haven't been since they redid it. The first 2 stations are after the main and bcl lines merge together so you get a decent amount of passenger trains during rush hour. If the NS H08 leaves early you might even get them heading westbound to Suffern.

As for the ALP46's, I honestly have only photographed from Elizabeth station parking deck. Its literally right ontop of the NEC and at the S curve. I know you can get decent shots on the coast line but i've never gone down there.
