<p>[quote user="HUDSONG1"]I can remember US Army TRAINMASTERS [black with yellow lettering] laying over at Kingston PA (NEPA) at the DL&W roundhouse in the early 60's. *never did get to see them when they left. Berwick PA (manufactured tanks, etc.) was about 25 miles south. Military trainings would pass northbound going to Scranton and wherever. This was the Bloom (Bloomsburg) Branch that connected the DL&W with the Pennsy at Northumberland PA, *along the Susquehanna River. Also, a town or 2 away (and again I didn't get any photos) about 4+ years ago, LAG (equipment etc.) in Duryea PA had 2 or more US AIR FORCE coal hoppers [ blue with white lettering]. In Ashley PA, +/- post Agnes Flood (June 1972) here in the Wyoming Valley there were (2) US Army Hospital Cars in the ol Jersey Central yard at the Glen Alden Breaker and yard. Before I got out of the Air Force in '71 I was at Sumter South Carolina and I believe an Air Force Center Cab used to interchange tank cars.
