You called?
I agree, early Conrail opens up MANY possibilities.
Just the other day, I recieved a PRR GP9 #7206 from a friend. As it turns out, that GP9 never got repainted into Penn Central, and was running around nearby Columbus with the PRR patched out and CR patches applied! This unit got rebuilt into a GP10 and painted blue (#7514) by 1979, but it was cool while it lasted
Also, check out the neat B-unit in the middle. Smokey Valley makes a conversion kit for these.
