RS3s on the 1st Belt - summer of 1970 - 1 of 3         
Date approximate. First Belt is pulling across Ridge Road in this summer shot. The B&O is over on the right. Notice the autos patiently waiting at the B&O lights (no crossing arms until the massive Ridge Rd. rebuilding years later...). The RS3s are relatively new on 1st Belt assignments (for some of us anyway) and have started to push out the older RS1s in local service. Later, they too would be supplanted, then by first generation EMDs.
