RE: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 01-21-2023 If you never rode in a caboose in the winter it was a thrill. It was cold for the most part unless you had a good wood fire in the stove. These cabins were oil fueled and did a good job above freezing but these guys are bundled pretty good to keep warm on this day in 1978. The temperature reached 24 degrees. Westbound at Summit Cut. The cupola was pretty warm in these and staying awake was a problem. Charlie RE: Trains on this day in the past: - bdw9535 - 01-21-2023 Winchester and Western at Millville, NJ, 1/22/15. Bruce RE: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 01-22-2023 1/22/1978 westbound at Leetonia, Ohio. It was another brutally cold day. The worst was yet to come. Charlie RE: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 01-23-2023 January 23, 1977 was pretty much like the same week a year later. A westbound crossing (not so) Pleasant Drive in East Palestine, Ohio.

I took this picture of a late #41 running west through East Palestine . Four hours or so it was being towed back to Pittsburgh. I think the train made it as far west as Canton Ohio before it was annulled. The first photo is the Conrail rescue units, the second the now tail end crossing the Market Street Crossing. Now the management of Amtrak has annulled trains when there was only a small amount of snow predicted instead of what we got on these days in 1978. There were drifts over 15 feet tall in places and it was the only time I ever saw a snow plow on the rail through here. Charlie RE: Trains on this day in the past: - cn nutbar - 01-26-2023 Hi Charlie---1/26/1978---I was celebrating my 31st birthday that day---I'm pretty sure it was a cold day here in the Great White North as well but at that time in my life I was probably celebrating in a warm location rather than standing trackside watching trains.In many ways I regret I wasn't taking pictures of the local train action in those years as so much has changed---this is why I appreciate your's and other's photo collection from those "lost years".

Winchester and Western GP10 and Norfolk Southern GP38-2. Bruce RE: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 01-28-2023 1/28/1978 westbound under the signal at "Buckeye" East Palestine, Ohio.
