Old Conrail Engine on Rough Tracks
On February 13th, 2024, I decided to take some time trackside on some old Reading Railroad trackage, not too far from my house. But rather than Reading Company power on Reading trackage, it was a beautiful Conrail Blue locomotive in operation. These liverys are becoming extremely rare, so rare that I would estimate under 15 locomotives are still in this paint, so I was glad I could shoot it.
The snowfall of 2/13/24 provided some photogenic opportunities. At our first spot, I decided to video the Conrail engine coming through the snow covered cornfields, our second spot was a side-angle of the locomotive while they struggled with crossing failure, and our third location was in the Alleys of East Greenville at the old Ex Reading EG Station.
I hope you enjoy this short Reading Rail Films Production, Thanks for tuning in.
