Pennsys last November
Title:  Pennsys last November
Description:  Symbol freight MD-16 (Edge Moor-Greenville) with an unusual number of GG-1s starts onto the High Line passing Arsenal Block and Interlocking Station on a rather dismal morning. This was your view from the east window of the block station, with the passenger tracks on the other side of the tower. An excellent place to see a lot of traffic pass by and make a wage simultaneously.

PRR GG1 4846
Title:  PRR GG1 4846
Description:  PRR half GG1 (perhaps it's a G1) 4846 at Wilmington, Delaware, on an unknown day in April 1979, photo by Chuck Zeiler. I happened upon this while passing through Wilmington on a business trip. It appears to have a duct directed towards the track at the rear of the unit, suggesting that perhaps it was used to clear snow in the yard. Although this is in the Conrail timeframe, it is unlikely this unit was on the CR roster. One source indicates that this was once #4846.

PRR GG1 4846
Title:  PRR GG1 4846
Description:  Former PRR GG1 4846 at the shops, Wilmington, Delaware on an unknown day in April 1979, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I'm not sure what this was, sometimes you shoot first and ask questions later. I failed to ask the obvious question after shooting this photo, so here's my best guess: There appears to be a duct pointing toward the track, I would suppose that it was to clear the track of snow. One source indicates that this was once #4846 and that it was converted to a snowblower for the Wilmington Shops.
