Here we have an image of another colorful consist from my days at X Tower. The train is eastbound as it approaches the diamond. The lead unit is former Penn Central GP38-2 8044 now with Conrail stencils. Behind the 8044 are a Southern Pacific GP35, Union Pacific GP9B and a U36C still in Erie Lackawanna colors. The photo was taken in February of ‘77 so we were almost a full year into the Conrail era at this point.
