Great day for a picnic
Title:  Great day for a picnic
Description:  Down under Starrucca, where the D&H Penn Division once ran-you can see the right of way beyond the picnic table-is a small park. A little over a dozen years ago, you could see SD 45s here on a regular basis-the gray, maroon and yellow of the Erie Lackawanna, along with C628s on the D&H. The Penn Division is now only a memory, but its still good to see SD 45s on the viaduct.

NYSW SD45 #3630 - New York, Susquehanna & Western
Title:  NYSW SD45 #3630 - New York, Susquehanna & Western
Description:  EMD originally built this loco as Burlington Northern SD45 #6521 in July of 1971. It bounced through several rosters making it a true boomer engine. This slide was taken by rail fan H.E. Brouse and is now part of my collection.
