All photos I can find show the MP15DC at Reading and Conrail time at the country side or passing smaller towns but never in Philadelphia etc. before they have been returned to GATX.

Reinhard,

According to what I found on the Conrail Historical Society page the MP15DC's stayed on what was the old Reading Division and served on lines that mainly dealt with coal. Spent some time going thru my Conrail books but could not confirm this.

Bruce, thank you for checking. That is what I was afraid of. I can not use the MP15DC for urban industry/warehouse switching if I want to stay close to the prototypical use.
