PC was swallowed by Conrail.

And the reporting mark "PC" is currently owned by NS.

With all the new threads for NS, CSX, UP, etc, I felt Ralph was getting left out.
All 3 were taken in the same place, Just west of East Palestine, Ohio in 76 and 77

Ahhh! THANK YOU Charlie! Thumbsup Thumbsup Thumbsup

I feel very fortunate to benefit from your treasure trove of PC photos! This recent collection really illustrates one of the best reasons to be a PC fan; the diversity of motive power and the railroad's willingness to lashup just about anything together. Love the U28C/F7 pairing in the top photo! Great stuff!!!!

Ralph, I think that the 6541 is a U33C. Wink Goldth Either way, though, great pictures and a great thread. Thumbsup

Yep, I checked a couple of PC roster sources and you're right! I haven't developed a sharp enough eye to notice big differences between some U boats. I checked the numbering system and see that both U28Cs and U33Cs are in the 6500 series but they can be distinguished by the last two numbers. (6534 is apparently the highest a U28C was numbered.) Are there identifying features on the loco itself that help you identify it as a U33C?
