  • Funeral Train? WNYP AC6000s Towed To Conway Railyard - Rochester, PA. What a rare catch this was for me. I didn't even know this was coming my way. I just happened to stop in a spot near Rochester that I like to catch trains at and saw this train coming in eastbound. Saw that it was a train that came in either from the Cleveland Line or Youngstown Line. It had several Western New York Pennsylvania Railroad locomotives that, I was told, were being scrapped. Whether that's the truth or not is another story. These were originally built as AC6000CWs for CSX but were eventually downrated to AC4600CWs. Anyway, enjoy this catch and pace with this train!

    Its a shame to see these big 60s go to waste, for me personally it makes it even sadder considering that the AC6000s are my favorite loco, nice catch of these old workhorses on their potentionally final ride

    As a person who loves trains, I saw a funeral train for CP that were turning into the new CP SD70s. That was back in 2018 btw.

      Thank you. Yeah I hope my friends who told me they were being scrapped were wrong. However I can understand why they would be if they don't meet the current EPA regulations for emissions. Plus, all of the WNYP engines and the B&H Rail Corp engine were dead in tow.

    It’s sad to see them scraping some of those trains I wonder if the last few of those trains use to be old Csx trains like engine 5000

    Saw these in Conway as well, surprised to learn they are getting scrapped after WNYP just got them. I heard it has to do with the recent abandonment of certain parts of their line.

      ​​​@@WesternNewYorkRailfan420 They're also not needed anymore, since the WNY&P recently mothballed a large amount of their trackage. It is sad to see them go, since it probably will be the end for them. I had thought they would be safe on the WNY&P.

      @@KidTrainCollector There was very little business along the trackage, so it wasn't feasible to continue operating it.
