New and old
Title:  New and old
Description:  CP Horn, once upon a time ZY on the EL, is getting new signals. The new boards Conrail will soon install are turned away, while the erstwhile Erie signals remain in service for a few more months. Once the line east of here is single tracked, the new signals will be cut in, and another vestige of the old order will be gone. In a nod to the old, two of the three units on the train are straight SD 40's.
