All great photos Marty, I recall seeing that GP9-B "sandwich" between the RS11's in multiple photos of the PC's Reading sub- a fascinating power set.
The Chicago shots are aways a favorite too, for the lighting, angle and details, note the green ex-UP Coach behind thrr GP.
Thanks for posting

Your first photo nicely contrasts the PRR Brunswick Green with the NYC black.

I love the giant PC logo on the caboose in that first shot!
