Conrail #6666 started out as Erie Lackawanna #3681 before merging into the CR roster. To the left is CR 9141, ex-PC 9141, nee-PRR 8541. This color slide was taken by CR conductor Ken Taylor. The color had deteriorated to the point that I could only flip the slide to a b&w format to save the image. |
