Nostalgia & History > RI E-6 heads commuter run at Lasalle St station in 1974.Date: 11/23/15 16:22 RI E-6 heads commuter run at Lasalle St station in 1974. Author: slacks Back in 1974 my brother and I had full run at Lasalle St station and were treated to E-7,s E-8,s F-7,s E-7,b and ROCK,S last E-6 #630. Here it is ready to dpt with a commuter train near the old tower. We used old intastamatic cameras with fixed 1/90 lenses that blurred anything going over 30mph but the shots are precious to us now! THANKS.

Author: CNW8531 Remember one time when the engineer (or fireman possibly) got down off one of the commuter units and handed us some train orders. He said that the train we were photographing/tape recording was train #221 (The Bankers). Those were the days and I'll cherish those memories forever.

You even got the depot switcher sitting in the background. I caught the runs occasionally that worked the Bankers. Thanks for the memories.
