NJT Arrow II #539 - New Jersey Transit
Title:  NJT Arrow II #539 - New Jersey Transit
Description:  Similar to the Budd RDC railcars, this GE/Avco railcar was a second generation Arrow II built in 1974 and originally carried the numbers 534-60. Starting in 1983, the cars were rebuilt to be compatible with the new Arrow III's and were renumbered 1234-1303. Retirement came in 1997. No photographer was listed nor the location of this photo. Only the month and year were given. Thanks to Steve Coraggio (see comment below) for helping to identify the location. Much appreciated, Steve!

NJT Arrow II 600
Title:  NJT Arrow II 600
Description:  Arrow II 600 at the Hunterspoint Avenue station in Long Island City, Queens, New York on an unknown day in June 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I believe that these cars were in the employ of New Jersey transit. From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_%28railcar%29 : In 1974, General Electric produced 70 Arrow II cars in the married pair format, classed MA-1G. These cars were built in GE's Erie (PA) shops with car shells from Avco. The Arrow IIs were numbered 534-603. They were purchased specifically to replace the ancient PRR MP54s, which were slowly phased out of New Jersey service in late 1977. In service, the Arrow IIs were frequently leased to Amtrak for off-hour Clocker trains. From June 1978 until the summer of 1979, the Arrow IIs were leased to MARC, where they bumped the last operating MP54s from service. Cars 590-591 were heavily damaged in a collision at Seabrook, Maryland on June 9, 1978, early in their MARC service, but were later returned to service. From late 1979 until 1982, the Arrow IIs were loaned to Amtrak and were used for Silverliner Service and off-peak Clockers. Upon the formation of NJ Transit, the Arrow IIs were called back to New Jersey. The Arrow IIs had been well worn during their time with Amtrak, and required a thorough overhaul.
