Thg locomotive is one of three F units that currently reside on this ex-Reading Company branch.

PREX 1755
Title:  PREX 1755
Description:  First train to come through here since the last snowfall, PREX 1755 has quite a bit of the white stuff on the pilot from the last few grade crossings. It is fitting that the railroad running through apple country would have a cab unit with a red nose.
