CR 6509 |
| Description: |
SLSE7 chugs through Mentor behind a pair of six-axle U-Boats, lead by U25C #6509. This unit began life with the Pennsyvlania in 1965 (where it was a GF25a). It kept number 6509 through Penn Central. Second unit is a U30C, also of PRR heritage (from 1967), where she was a GF30a. This train was running from East St. Louis, IL to Selkirk, NY, heading over the Chicago Line at this point after having run up the Indianapolis Line all the way to Cleveland. |

| Title: |
CR ENPI6b |
| Description: |
Conrail 23B drops down the lead to Rockville Bridge over Conrail ENPI6b, which has an EMD, a GE and an ALCO in the consist. The Enola to Pittsburgh train had a fairly short run to complete. At this point in time Conrail was three years old, but Penn Central's deferred maintenance was still evident in the physical plant of what had once been the pride of the Pennsylvania Railroad. PC 6239 was one of only six SD45s delivered new to Penn Central (the rest of the fleet came from PRR). |
