NJT Arrow III 1333         
Arrow III 1333 at the Penn station in 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 : The Arrow IIIs were built in 1977 and 1978 by General Electric in the same fashion as the Arrow IIs. They consist of 200 cars built as married pairs (1334–1533) and 30 single cars (1304–1333). These cars were initially ordered as part of a plan to rehabilitate the NJDOT (Later NJ Transit's) Hoboken division, converting the 3,000 volt DC system to a 25 Kv 60 Hz AC system. However, due to the retirement of the Arrow I MUs, and the Arrow IIs frequently being leased to Amtrak and MARC, as well as delays to the rehabilitation of the Hoboken electrification, the Arrow IIIs were assigned to the former Penn Central electrified lines instead.
