Santa On The Point. A cherished annual tradition at New Jersey Transit is the Railmen for Children Train, which celebrated its 40th Anniversary with this trip on December 2, 2022. NJ Transit employees plan and work all year to create a special environment for the attendees of this event. While on board, the children were served lunch, entertained by characters and given special gifts. Alstom Comet V cab car NJTR 6007 is seen with a special drumhead affixed as it passes through Hillburn, New York heading back towards Hoboken, New Jersey.

Railmen For Children mission statement:
Every year Railmen for Children invites local schools and organizations consisting of less fortunate and exceptional children on a Santa train. Teachers ask the children to write Christmas wish lists to Santa and those letters are delivered to Railmen for Children. Railmen for Children does everything in its power to grant the wishes and Santa delivers the gifts on the train ride.
