CR once had 50 of these
Title:  CR once had 50 of these
Description:  CRs SD 35s came from two previous owners, the PRR and CNJ. The nose of one of the ex Pennsy units is seen in a grab shot from a passing PATH train near Marion Jct-note the curving track at right. That connects to the ex NYC North Bergen yard. I once saw an SD 40 take that curve. It was an experience.

Head end helpers
Title:  Head end helpers
Description:  Sometimes, due to train make up, the helpers were put up front. Typically this happened with Trailvans, but some other trains got them as well. Here we see a TV train on its way uphill.

Westbound at the curve
Title:  Westbound at the curve
Description:  The train with the head end helpers passes the park at Horseshoe. Those were the days-an SD45, ex EL 3620, in the helper set, and an SD35 leading the train.
