| Title: |
Westbound vans |
| Description: |
A slightly different angle of a train seen elsewhere. CR had a big stable of 4 axle GEs that were common on these trains, especially on the Chicago Line, which was ideal for them. Three do the honors here on a 65 car TV 79. |

| Title: |
Stacks with an unusual leader |
| Description: |
Though Conrail typically used its B36, B 40, and a variety of six axle units on the priority trains, sometimes it was a case of "whatever runs." This must have been one of those days, as an aging GP 38 is in the lead. |

TV 26 with mostly old power |
| Description: |
TV 26 rolls east behind a pair of GP 40s that trace their heritage back to the NYC, along with a much newer GE. Today its enough power to take the 40 auto racks and 7 COFC to Jersey. |
