Nostalgia & History > Tower Tuesday - PC Alco's

In the 1970's before Conrail, Morrisville yard north of Philadelphia was PC's home for many of the small fleet of Alco RSD12's. A pair of bigger RSD15's also called Morrisville home base as well as PC's entire roster of Alco T6 switcher. Other usual diesel power found at Morrisville were GP9B's, GP30's and SD9's. E44 and GG1 motors were also common at Morrisville. It was not the place for the plain vanilla usual.

What a classic shot. Morrisville was definitely a great place in PC days with the aforementioned variety in freight power and all the passenger trains too.

Photoed a T-6 in Phillipsburg NJ once. Must have found its way up the Bel-Del.

Power for the Bel-Del was part of the Morrisville assignment.
T6's were common in Phillipsburg.
