At the left are two unidentified GM-EMD diesels powering an Erie Railroad passenger train. Mr. Ken May suggests that the latter may have been using PRR tracks during the aftermath of Hurricane Diane. The exact date and the location are not recorded. Produced and distributed by FJC Products of Newport, Delaware. |
