Reading GP35' Early Conrail
Author: RDG630

The 37 Reading Company GP35 locomotives #3620-3656 retained their Reading numbers on the Conrail roster after 1976.
First scene is very appropriate as the beloved Reading Company was dead. Telford, Pa.
Second a caboose hop at Reliance Road in Souderton to bring empty American Olean clay hoppers back to Philadelphia.
Third a most unusual assignment was that of power for SEPTA's push-pull train seen at Phoenixville
