Here’s one deep from the archive: I was traveling with my father and brother and we’d come to South Amboy to watch the engine change where E8s were replaced by venerable GG1 electrics on New York & Long Branch passenger trains (North Jersey Coast Line) running from Bay Head Junction to Pennsylvania Station, New York.

We got lost on the way down and ended up in a post-apocalyptic waterfront at Perth Amboy.

Finally, we were trackside at the South Amboy Station.

Here’s a slightly improved variation: It should have a bit more ‘snap’ (contrast in shadows).
