Title: Ash Wednesday on commuter train.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: P-32234 ASH WEDNESDAY ON COMMUTER TRAIN HOBOKEN, N.J. -- The benediction is pronounced as Lackawanna Train 606 pulls into Hoboken, N.J. Commuters bound for New York sat with bared heads as the Rev. Craig Biddle III, curate of St. Peter’s Episcopal church, Morristown, N.J., held a 20-minute service on Ash Wednesday. The mobile worship experience, he told the smoking-car congregation, was not an attempt “to play church or perform an experiment -- this service is basically taking the ritual of the commuter and adding it to the liturgy of the church.” Many of the commuters were enthusiastic about the service and expressed home they would be continued.
