Westbound from Avon

The first image here shows a westbound train ready to depart Avon Yard (in the distance, on the left hand side of the frame). We're on the former Big Four/NYC west of Indianapolis.

Conrail is two months old when these pictures were taken so the power standing off to the side is interesting—three units of the Erie Lackawanna along with a Penn Central unit with a Pennsy logo peeking out. Two of three EL units (SD45-2 and SDP45) were purchased with the idea of having larger fuel capacity for long runs from the east to Chicago without refueling.

The second image has the train down the line about six miles, directly south of Danville, Indiana. We're looking down on the railway from State Road 39.

The winter skyline of New York City is particularly stunning. The sunsets are especially beautiful in the winter, as the crisp, cold air accentuates the colors of the winter sky, giving it a dreamlike quality. The skyscrapers stand out against the pink and purple hues, creating an arresting view. On a clear night, the beauty of the skyline can take your breath away. #nycwinter #nycskyline #njskyline #erielackawanna #njskyline #empirestatebuilding #hudsonyards #nycsunset #nycskylinesunset #nyclitup #nyclights #nycbluehour #arrestingview #wintersunsets #onaclearnight #nycwintersunsets #susancandelario (at New York City) https://www.instagram.com/p/Co3XQ8rriLF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Conrail's PR-32 arrives at Oak Island after having to detour via the Lehigh Line due to track work taking place on the usual route via the Garden State Secondary (Chemical Coast Line). The train is seen here crossing over Amtrak's Northeast Corridor via the Lehigh Valley Bridge between CP-Newark and CP-Valley Norfolk Southern's Erie Lackawanna heritage SD45-2 leading the way.

Conrail’s First Summer

Here’s some interesting power seen at the Big Four Yard in Avon, Indiana (former New York Central line). It’s nice to see a variety of fallen flags here—sans patches or blue paint yet.

The Erie Lackawanna locomotive is an SDP45 (though never carried a steam generator), the Central Railroad of New Jersey unit is an SD35, and the Penn Central engine is an SD45. Even the “Reading Lines” boxcar is nice to see.
