It was 96 degrees out with extreme humidity. The sun was lost in the haze. But for this lashup the shutter click was worth it, despite the backlit, dirty dishwater look, and the sweat pouring off me from the bike ride. An ex Reading GP35 lead an even more unique Conrail SD35, followed by the rarest of rare (and honestly maybe the only time one of these ever ran through here) Frisco high nose U25B #806. As I recall, the Frisco U25Bs that were leased to Conrail never went home again. I think that they were scrapped by Naparano shortly after this. |
