Title:
Olympic Trials
Description:
Conrail painted two units to honor the bicycle qualifying events for the 1992 Olympics. The trials were held in Altoona, so it was a show of local pride for the many employees at Juniata. The other unit was an SD40-2. This one, the SD 50, is trailing on OIBU at Tioga Center.

Title:
Buy US Savings Bonds
Description:
Conrail had a couple of units painted to encourage purchase of US Savings Bonds. One of them leads ML 440 as seen from the overpass at Hunt, just east of the Portage Bridge. The signal alongside the train was a semaphore til a couple of years earlier; up til then there were a pair of them here. When track 2 was lifted, the signal was replaced with a Type G cluster signal. The roadbed of former track 2 has been graded and ballasted to make a maintenance road.
