CR C425 #5068 |
| Description: |
Nice roster shot of a retired Alco C425 sitting in the scrap line at Conway yard. Originally built as PRR #2432, it transitioned into PC #2432, then CR #2432 before its last renumbering to CR 5068, Retirement was on 3/16/1981. CR conductor Ken Taylor caught it sitting in the scrap line ahead of sister CR 5075 (nee PRR 2441). The color slide had a severe color shift so I flipped it to a b&w image to preserve the details. Ken Taylor, a CR conductor, took the color slide shortly afterthe loco's retirement on 3/16/1981. |

CR C425 #5075 |
| Description: |
Striking profile of the retired Alco C425 unit built in December of 1965 as PRR 2441. The loco became PC 2441 on the PRR-NYC merger and then CR 2441 before finally receiving the CR #5075 to make room for future B40-8's as 5000 series locos. CR conductor Ken Taylor took the color slide but due to the color degradation, I flipped it to b&w to save the image. |
