Tuscarora Almanac for October 28


1960 – from The Book of Special Runs

A train called “The Titan Subway Football Special” departed from 169th Street-Jamaica at about 9:30 AM. It ran non-stop to 42nd Street-8th Avenue (lower level) where it picked up more fans. It proceeded south and revered on the track A-5 south of 34th Street. It then ran non-stop to the 155th Street Station. Passengers would then walk to the Polo Grounds were the New York Titans (now the Jets) played.

A second run was made on November 24 starting from 179th Street.


1983 – from The Book of Last Runs

This is the last day of operation for the former Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1's now running for New Jersey Transit. The final regular run was made by No.4879 in charge of Train No. 3323, a Penn Station to South Amboy run.
