Journal Square
Title:  Journal Square
Description:  A Conrail train headed from the ex Pennsy to the ex NYC rolls past the PATH station at Journal Square in Jersey City. This was an intresting place to see Conrail trains. At the time, you could see not only diesel powered trains, but some with various electric units as well, including E33's, E44's and GG1's. CR 6520 was almost brand new on the date of this photo.

Action on the Hack River bridge
Title:  Action on the Hack River bridge
Description:  The PATH train from Jersey City to Newark sometimes yielded some good photo ops, if the timing was right. This time I got a train on the P&H line behind a set of SD40-2s, the lead unit one of the newest on the CR roster at the time, and the 5th from last such unit CR would acquire, the final SD40-2 being 6524. If only the PATH train had been a split second faster, the catenary support would not have cut off the pilot of the lead unit. Close but no cigar!!

CR 7553
Title:  CR 7553
Description:  A veritable sea of blue at the former PRR facility in Enola, PA. CR 7553 is listed as a GP10, but except for a bit of missing fuel tank skirt, looks like an unrebuilt box stock GP9 in this view. She was originally NYC 5996.
