Zach Pumphery General What the hell? I'm guessing that is no longer electrified? Did an electric unit do that? 1/16/2006 2:49:10 PM
Mike Woodruff General No, I think 50 years of rust and corrosion did that. It's my understanding that several weeks passed before it was repaired, during which time trains kept right on operating under it. 1/16/2006 4:54:49 PM
Jon Berkemeyer General sounds like early conrail alright.. 1/16/2006 6:21:01 PM
Brent Jackson General Is that on the NEC? 1/18/2006 10:49:34 AM
Mike Woodruff General Slightly off of it. The NEC mainlines that the passenger trains run on is about 100 yards directly behind the photographer. This train was on a freight only line from Greenville to Waverly Yard. 1/18/2006 11:17:56 AM
