Conrail Engine 1681, in operation lifesaver paint, was in trenton in June-July 1999

A month or two later, I spotted the 1680 working Trenton, ont his sunny weekend day!

For you NS fans, this engine is right up your alley. I hadn't seen any NS (PRR) 1440, the Former Conrail 1686. In the drab, nasty colors of Norfolk Southern Corp. I was only surprised that they hadn't removed the toilet for a bag in this unit yet.   Late Summer 1999

After the NS engine was gone (amen to that!) Conrail (CSXT)1564 was working in the yard. Does this O.L. painted engine look like another one on this page?????

RIGHT: It was about 9:00p.m. on a cold Winter Night. The sun had set at about 6:00p.m. I decided to take a chance on getting a pic of the 1453 while it was still at Trenton Yard, so I set my camera on the bumper of a truck, set the camera for automatic shutter release, and it only took about 5 seconds to snap this pic. Notice how the locomotive has a ghostly appearence because the lights on inside were brighter than the sky!

Conrail (PRR) 1441 was sitting idle in Trenton Yard in May 2000 waiting for its next assignment that wouldn't come until Monday. A few days after this pic was taken, the engine was switched out for another, but that is still to come to this page!!!
