Was fortunate enough to visit Horeshoe Curve a couple of times in the early/mid 80s. Seems kinda hard to believe all that blue is gone... |

Think these are helpers too - not that it matters. Tunnel Hill to this day ranks as probably the coolest railfanning spot Ive ever been. |

This GP38 still showed its lineage in January of 81. For some reason it was later re-painted black rather than Conrail blue, but with the characteristic CONRAIL nose lettering. |

Light engine cut |
Description: |
Not sure if these were helpers being moved or traffic into/out of the Juniata engine shops, but Conrail sure seemed to move cuts like this around the Curve quite a bit...at least, in my limited experience. |
