was surprised myself with the quality of the photos....It is a time capsule showing alot of power in its last days before scrapping, plus the varied motive power that Penn-Central and early Conrail had to contend with. Dave Williams http://groups.yahoo.com/group/nsaltoonajohnstown

What a great selection of photos.

Incredibly good quality considering the dates, too.

I stumbled upon this site when doing a search the other day...I found it quite interesting, especially to look back at early Conrail with its inherited fleet of 1st and 2nd generation diesels...check it out! http://oak.cats.ohiou.edu/~duplerd/pa/altoona.html Dave Williams http://groups.yahoo.com/groups/nsaltoonajohnstown
