Charlie B Wrote:If I had to pick another era to model, I think it would have to be Conrail Apr 1976, to 1979, with all the different motive power and rolling stock. I saw so many things many of which I didn't get pictures. This consist is a good example. Everything is gone now, including the "BUCKEYE" crossover.An interestingly different take on a familiar color mismatch. What I first thought was a Reading unit is Precision National! Not used to seeing those on early Conrail, but should've expected it, considering the other power they leased.

Fan of late and early Conrail... also 40s-50s PRR, 70s ATSF, BN and SP, 70s-80s eastern CN, pre-merger-era UP, heavy electric operations in general, dieselized narrow gauge, era 3/4 DB and DR, EFVM and Brazilian railroads in general... too many to list!
