Trains rep
Title:  Trains rep
Description:  In the late 70s, Trains magazine, during one of its motive power surveys, looked for a diesel that typified the power on American railroads. Their conclusion was that the unit that did so was B&O 3802. Here it is, some years later, trailing on an eastbound. Perhaps typically, it is the last unit of three on an othewise unremarkable train on an unremarkable day.

Grab shot
Title:  Grab shot
Description:  One of the best ways to see the engine tracks at CRs South Kearny yard was from the ex DLW commuter trains that ran along the north side of the yard. Unfortunately, it offered only the option of grab shots from the train. Still, the power could get interesting. Heres a pair of units typical of the era, with a patched but bleeding through ex PC unit.

Dead line
Title:  Dead line
Description:  There will be a bunch of these. The Enola dead line abounded with all kinds of diesels in the mid 80s. I took several photos from points along US 11/15 hoping to capture some of the power that would soon be going to its final rest. Some nuits still wore their pre Conrail garb-note the ex EL GP 35 to the right rear.

I like this shot
Title:  I like this shot
Description:  But it was hard to get. The location is just west of Deposit on the ex Erie Delaware Division. The problem was, you had to stand on the overpass, which was part of NY 17, a four lane expressway. Not a good idea. The troopers would tell you that, too. We see SLN 4 behind a mix of NS and CSX power.

High above

Description:  SLN 4 rolls high above Lanesboro as it heads for Jersey behind an interesting mix of NS and CSX power. Both roads had contributed power to assist NYSW with their directed service operation of the D&H, and anything could show up.
