<p>Desiels? Probably the E units. I think those were able to get into places that some of the heavier steam could not despite greater bridge plate loadings. The desiels were dynamically "Smoother" therefore easy on the light track than the hammering of the steam.</p><p>Harrisburg, and Baltimore were Electrified towards NYC and the GG1 was king.They would run two and I think they tried three but found the wire overload.</p><p>There is a picture somewhere I think inside a hardcover book on Maryland railroads (Have to dig it up) that showed a Passenger train on that line "The General" which had a hodgepodge of sleepers from all sorts of railroads hurrying south.</p><p>If the PRR had it you bet they ran it, just not into that area between York and Baltimore perhaps.</p>
