PN 5342 was constructed in 1980 by GMD for the Canadian National Railway, retaining its original road number throughout its life.

CN 53033
Title:  CN 53033
Description:  New Hope's former Canadian National side dump car, still in its former owner's markings, is just one of the historic freight cars that calls this shortline railroad home. Quite appropriate that the car is coupled to a former CN GP-9 in this photo. Perhaps the two worked together up in Canada many years prior.

PN 7010
Title:  PN 7010
Description:  Despite a rebuild under CN ownership that included chopping the short hood, the long hood end of this old Geep is still considered the front. Showing off its new paint job in the morning sun, a wonderful job done by the New Hope shop forces, the locomotive would soon depart for Lansdale, PA to work freight on the ex-Reading lines there.

NHRR 5577
Title:  NHRR 5577
Description:  Front end view of New Hope's former Canadian Pacific Railway SD40-2, constructed by GMD in 1972. Operated across Canada in freight service, the unit also saw freight operations on CP's United States lines as well, including the old D&H. Arriving at New Hope in 2007, it replaced two GE C30-7s which had left for the Ohio Central. Usually working freight trains on the southern end of the line at Ivyland, it is rare to see the locomotive providing power for north end passenger service.
