I misread the date on the ex Conrail CSX unit at Pennsauken.  That pictured was from 2/22/10. Here's the one from 2/20/19.  Southern RR of NJ at Absecon, NJ.

Continuing with the bitter winter of 1977 a westbound approaches the James Street crossing in East Palestine, Ohio February, '77
I was young enough and dumb enough to be out taking these before I had to be at work at 8 AM. I am sure glad I did.

I have proof that there may be someone shooting back.    
2/27/1978, New Waterford, Ohio.  The guy with the camera is a good friend and he was on his way to Chicago, He was also the crew dispatcher so cab rides were common.  Track speed was only 10 MPH
