Old home video footage of the engine change at South Amboy, NJ on NJ Transit's former New York & Long Branch RR (later renamed North Jersey Coast Line). At the time relatively newly created NJ Transit took over the commuter rail operations from Conrail who operated under contract with NJDOT. All of the equipment made during this visit still has the NJDOT paint and markings on them. This video shows the last few months of this tradition of changing from electric to diesel locomotives that was a carryover from the PRR/PC days.
