CR 5099 |
Description: |
Originally PRR no. 2407, this particular RS-27 carried the same road number through all of its Penn Central career and almost all of its Conrail career. For whatever reason, no. 2407 outlasted its classmates in service. In the final months before the Thanksgiving 1979 Alco purge, it received a renumbering along with the last surviving 4-axle Centuries. John C. Benson photo, from the Ralph L. Phillips collection of the Bay State Model Railroad Museum. |

Description: |
NH 0421 and three rostermates await their fate back where they were built. Alco RS27 demonstrator no. 640-1 appears to be in the process of being rebuilt as a PRR C424, and two export models (likely WDMs for India) frame the foreground. Gerald H.
