Conrail Interchanges with New Hope & Ivyland Baldwin DS-44-750
History: PRR 2250, PRR 2198, CR 2198, and today: NHIR 2198
Only once a year, during Railfan Weekend, is the only time #40 goes beyond Lahaska to Ivyland and return
Note the diesel are racing #40!
Just a few years ago, 7087 traded CSX YN2 for the NH&I's Lightning Stripe. It's better looking in NH&I paint...
It only seems appropriate that the Reading should be mentioned for this photo, as #40 adorns a Reading 6 chime, whistling for Reading era crossing signals, on Reading tracks.
THis would've been a classic "pulling in" photo if it weren't for the eldery fan snapping a photo of #2198
2198 and 7087 prepare for a runby. Once completed, they will back down the line and uncouple from their consist and go into the siding.
Perhaps feeling left out, since 40 was the attention grabber, 2198 smokes it up for the camera.
Unknown what the actual car was.
An old RDG era crossing signal guards Ivyland Road at Ivyland as storm clouds gather over the rural Bucks County village.
2198 runs around the long train at Ivyland.
The train heads north about cross over Almshouse Rd.
Mearns Rd.
