Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-12-2014 JWB, those were B&LE cars. Probably being returned to the home road in Ashtabula. I think the P&LE had trackage rights to Ashtabula over Conrail at that time. here is a video on one of my youtube channels of the OC bridge and portions of the Port Perry branch From April 11, 1987 <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQD_rniX9Jg&feature=c4-overview&list=UU9KIqwlIhm0GYcP-WBhwviA">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQD_rniX ... cP-WBhwviA</a><!-- m --> Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - jwb - 02-12-2014 The B&LE cars got around. A friend of mine had a bunch of slides covering a derailment of those cars on the PRR, carrying Venezuelan ore from Philadelphia. I converted a bunch from the old AHM ore cars (which were B&LE prototype) using Champ decals. How time goes by! Re: Trains on this day in the past: - e-paw - 02-12-2014 Not to far in the past ( only last year) CNJ / NS #1071 sits in the Allentown yard licking her wounds. And the remote controlled units that hit her.

Thanks for joining in everyone. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-14-2014 #41, Broadway Limited, late again due to the bad weather. February 14, 1978 Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-15-2014 Four years ago all ready, East Bound NS train at East Palestine. cHARLIE Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-16-2014 We had some visitors from a foreign road on this date in 1978, Here they are taking a train west toward their home road. The bridge was supposed to be from the old Y&O railroad, a local interurban, and moved to this location. I don't have any way to prove that, but it does look like a leftover from interurban days. cHARLIE Re: Trains on this day in the past: - bdw9535 - 02-16-2014 A pair of CSX GE locos clearing the Conrail Shared Assets Beesley Point Secondary. Bruce Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-20-2014 West through East Palestine, Feb 20, 1977 cHARLIE Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-24-2014 Climbing out of Summit Cut 4 years ago. NS C40-9w heads train of double stack containers. The remnants of our 30 inch snowfall are still visible. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - e-paw - 02-24-2014 While looking through my grandfathers old photos I came across these. He was part of the 288th Field Artillery Observation Battalion during the second world war.. All of these pictures are from Feb 8th 1946, ( not quite this day in the past, but close enough ) when his unit destroyed a German rail gun. From his notes on the back of the pics this is somewhere north of Grafenwohr Germany. My grandfather is the man standing sideways in the top two pictures. Standing with him in the top left picture is T/S Meury and Cpl. Carney. T/s Meury is also in the top right pic near an overturned car that was part of the rail guns train. In the bottom left Cpl. Carney is standing the damaged breach of the gun. In the bottom right Meury and Carney are standing next to the 90 foot long barrel. Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-25-2014 February 25, 1978 Rochester, Pa Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-26-2014 A lone GP7 coming out of Summit Cut in 1978. Snow Snow and more Snow, same as this year. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 02-27-2014 Amtrak Broadway Limited #41 Feb 27, 1978 just a mile west of East Palestine. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 03-02-2014 At least today it is all snow so far. That wasn't the case in '78 Charlie |
