Title:  CR SD50 #6709
Description:  Built by EMD in November of 1983 when CR was in extreme need of power to handle the hills and grades of their region, this SD50 along with 134 other SD50 units responded. They proved their strength many times over. After the CR breakup, this unit became CSX 8647. A good color slide by CR conductor Ken Taylor.

Motley mix
Title:  Motley mix
Description:  Conrail, as a rule in its later days, generally ran a fairly unified power consist-a set of six axle units, sometimes four, depending on what was available, and what standard practice was. Occasionally, something would get out of kilter, and it became anything goes. Here we see an OIBU rolling west with a GP 38 leading an SD 50, and a pair of NS units, one GE, one EMD. They have their 99 cars well in hand, and will get over the road promptly.
