PRR Train #983 |
| Description: |
The engineer of PRR Train #983 (an early rush hour run to Moorestown), waits for the highball at Merchantville depot. The semaphore at the end of the platform warns of open switches at local industries and serves as the distant signal to Pennsauken block station, a provisional block station that would occasionally see service for troop movements to Fort Dix during the early years of the Vietnam conflict. |

PRR #987 in yard and CB-21 on main |
| Description: |
It's Friday night and the equipment from train #987 is put away at Pemberton. Minutes later, the operator at Cooper will gives C&E Extra 7268 North (the CB-21 with GP-9 7268) a K card for a Clear-block to State Street in Pavonia. The Pemberton Branch represented the last manual block passenger operations on the PRR proper (the LIRR and PRSL excepted). |
