The N&W and Southern merger was interesting because both railroads at that time ran some of their engines long hood forward or had quite a few high short hood units.In mergers like this the two railraods keep their original reporting marks mostly for unions I believe.If you look at the Conrail split, all of NS equipment was marked as PRR and CSX was NYC. I know that the EL union was also active in Conrail.
