Waiting at the fuel pad. The GP39-2 is still in Reading "candy apple green." It was delivered #3416 in 1974. It was later renumbered 385 (D&H Class ERS-23), before being reclaimed at the end of lease by its owner CSX in 1991. It's still on their roster. The RS11 was delivered to New York Central in March 1960 as NYC 8009, but was not accepted along with five other units. She was re-sold to D&H (class ARS-18) and labored on The Bridge Line until scrapping.
