U 25B's and a U 33B
Title:  U 25B's and a U 33B
Description:  In May of 1983, Tri State Chapter NRHS ran a trip on the West Shore to Selkirk. On arrival at Selkirk, we passed the dead line, which had a lot of interesting items. These were all taken from the train through those wonderful Lexan windows, so the quality may not be so hot, but the subjects are worth a little grubbiness.

Interloper
Title:  Interloper
Description:  This ex PC unit is at the Croxton engine facility. As the EL was downgraded and its power dispersed, there were a lot of PC units that wound up working on the line. This is one of many.
