Description:  A southbound rolls past Alexandria early in the morning. RF&P is notable for several things, among others that their odd numbered units faced south, even numbered units faced north.

Long hood first
Title:  Long hood first
Description:  This configuration was not the typical one for the RF&P, unlike its Virginia brethren N&W and Southern. Every once in a while a unit would get backwards. Today its the leader on this 52 car southbound, passing the Alexandria passenger station.
