Railfan Pictures of the Day - 09/14/2005
| Amtrak Northeast Corridor Eddington Station Bensalem PA August 31 2005 |
| The Plasser American Corp.-built Switch Exchange System, or SES, was moved from North Jersey to Harrisburg PA for work on the Keystone Corridor. |
 |
| It was pulled by two of Amtrak's new switchers, MP15B's 576 and 578. |
 |
| These cars are used to transport the prefabricated switches which, due to their size, are titled for clearance considerations. |
 |
| These cars are used to clean the ballast. |
 |
| The train also includes a number of Amtrak flat cars among the specialized equipment. |
