CR 6865, RSD12, 1978
Title:  CR 6865, RSD12, 1978
Description:  Everyday. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Robert Yanosey that was taken in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during August of 1978. Shown here (L to R) are Conrail engine #6865 and a Lackawanna Railroad "Geep" whose number is not recorded. #6865 is an RSD12 built by the American Locomotive Company as PRR engine number "8665" in February of 1958, renumbered "6865" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger, and then acquired by Conrail. They're poised to pull a mixed-cargo freight train out of the Hollidaysburg Yards.

AMTK SW1 #744
Title:  AMTK SW1 #744
Description:  Finally tracked down info on this relatively obscure little switcher. It was originally built for PRR as #9145. Absorbed by Penn Central as #8575, it then became first Amtrak #257 and finally as seen in this photo by Forrest Trittenbach as #744. After all of that merging and converging, it was finally retired July 1986 at Wilmington DE. Behind it sits another obscure Conrail unit #6867. Looks to be an RSD-12 but can't find it listed anywhere.
