An ex PC SD35 was in the Selkirk deadline. The GP 9 to the left appears to have been a CNJ unit. |

Off to Valpo |
| Description: |
The late 70s found a wide variety of commuter services in the Chicago area. Some, like the BN or Northwesterns, were extensive. Others were vestigal remains of larger plans, and a few were always small. One of the smaller ones was the single trip on the ex Pennsy out to Valparaiso Ind, which Conrail inherited from PC. It ran with a pair of GP 9s and some ex PRR P 70s, though after the EL Cleveland train quit in January 1977, the cars from that service came west and were added to the Valpo train. This is the way it looked in 1978, a pair of GPs and P 70s, seen leaving Union Station. |

A straight GP 9-CR had not started rebuilding them into the 7500 series GP 10's yet-assists a Raritan train as it gets ready to roll into Newark to take on passengers. |

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. |

Anyone can play |
| Description: |
In 1984, some of the smaller and older units had not been repainted, especially if they were not going to be around long. Here we see a GP 9 in LV paint, its heritage showing through the paint over, and a pair of switchers, one in the Raritan Valley scheme, one Reading. It was quite the rainbow. |
