Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-20-2013 Anyone new coming to this post please feel free to join. It's free. and No ADS I have many older pictures that I would like to share and I hope there are others here that will do like wise. The excuse is to post photos from the same date in other years. I hope we can enjoy this . Here are 3 from November 20, 1976 through East Palestine, Ohio Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-23-2013 From November, 1977 Amtrak Broadway Limited train 41 at the station in Canton, Ohio Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Ralph - 11-23-2013 What a great idea Charlie! Wow, I took the Broadway Limited to Chicago in early September 1977 so I could eventually get to Iowa and attend my Freshman year of college! Re: Trains on this day in the past: - e-paw - 11-23-2013 This is a great thread,, just wish I had something to add. Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-23-2013 e-paw Wrote:This is a great thread,, just wish I had something to add.A day in the past could be a year ago. I don't have exact dates on some of mine, just the month and year on some, so they will have to do when the exact day is unknown. It is still an excuse to post some older pictures. If anyone is modeling a particular Conrail unit from late 1976 to 1979 and needs a picture let me know, If I have one I will be happy to email it or post it if I have it. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-23-2013 Ralph Wrote:What a great idea Charlie!Most of the time #41 was through here at 12:30 AM. Only when it was very late could we get a picture. This particular picture was taken because I had been with a friend that was a crew dispatcher, and we knew it would be light enough to get some shots at the Canton station stop. Canton is 50 miles west of E Palestine, and no longer has a passenger train. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-24-2013 Nov. 24, 1976 late night at the car lot. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-25-2013 The dreary days of November dwindle down as a black consist of Conrail handles a mail train headed for Conway, Pa Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-26-2013 4 month old Conrail Sd40-2 at the Conway yards awaiting her next assignment the evening of November 26, 1977. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 11-29-2013 I got tied up taking a road trip to deliver a furkid I rescued to his fur-ever home, then there was the Thanksgiving diner to cook and eat. Here is a picture of a train headed by an ALCO Century with two ex EL EMDs. The coal is probably bound for the Cleveland Power plant, it appears to be on the old PYA which runs along the Beaver and Mahoning Rivers. (the two center tracks) The location is what was known as Junction Stretch between New Brighton and Rochester, Pa. On the hillside in back the line that serviced the Marion Hill plants is barely visible. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 12-01-2013 My conductor (wife Mary) and me at New Castle, Pa 11 years ago for a Christmas train that benefited some of the local charities. Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Steamtrains - 12-02-2013 You've got some GREAT pictures..!! Keep 'em coming..!! A bit of nostalgia never hurt anybody... Re: Trains on this day in the past: - Charlie B - 12-02-2013 The Early Birds were still on track in December, 1978. Rochester, Pa Charlie Re: Trains on this day in the past: - e-paw - 12-02-2013 Great shot Charlie.. You wouldn't happen to know when the NYC started to paint the boxes that way??? Re: Trains on this day in the past: - doctorwayne - 12-03-2013 The Early Bird Service started in 1954, I think, but I'm not sure if that's an original lettering scheme. Wayne |
