Orange Blossom Special
Title:  Orange Blossom Special
Description:  Seaboard, RF&P and Chessie revived an old passenger train name to boost a pair of intermodal trains between Jersey and Florida. It was easy to spot, as it had RF&P power leading north of Richmond, due to the cab signalling unique to them. The power often ran through to Jersey, as on this days edition, seen at Anacostia in DC. Check out the Conrail IH maintenance truck at left.
