Good morning.
This thread too is getting long so it was time to start a new one. The old one is here. Trains this day in the past
A day in the past could be a year ago. I don't have exact dates on some of mine, just the month and year on some, so they will have to do when the exact day is unknown. It is still an excuse to post some older pictures.
If anyone is modeling a particular Conrail unit from late 1976 to 1979 and needs a picture let me know, If I have one I will be happy to email it or post it if I have it.

I was invited to ride to Conrail OCS on April 28, 1998. I was able to get my volunteers on board too. The trip for us started at Freeport, Pa and went to South Fork, Pa via the Conemaugh line. The train was turned at South Fork. Good food, good friends and good company Here is a Dutch door shot of the train.

April, 1975 at the Market Street crossing in East Palestine, Ohio. PC FP7 rooster shot taken with an instamatic and one of the few photos taken that was what I call worth having. The subject saved the picture from the bin.

Most likely this is TV12 at Haggerty Road, between Enon and New Galilee, Pa. May 2 1977. Another shot that can't be duplicated due to vegetation.

May 3, 1975. The only camera I had (and the only one I could afford) was a Kodak instamatic. It is not a great picture, but this is the local under the West Street bridge in East Palestine, Ohio. The negative was showing some mold when it was scanned
