northern short lines
Posted by willy6 on Tuesday, May 25, 2004 8:38 PM
I was driving through Delaware on Monda y headed back home to SC. On highway 113 , I noticed what 2 locomotives pushing hopper cars. The locomotives were a MAROON color with yellow lettering and appeared to be GP-9'S. I was too far away to see what railroad it was.......any help?
Being old is when you didn't loose it, it's that you just can't remember where you put it.

Probably Maryland & Delaware; they have a fleet of CF 7's and a handful of RS-3m's to operate several ex-PRR/PC branches from Delaware into Maryland.
