nice photos ... with the TV train on #1 track it was to continue down the Harrisburg Line and wasn't going to take the Norristown Earnest connection to the Morrisville Line ... i'm thinking the one unit wonder TV train was a split from Harrisburg to South Philly ... that venture was short lived and i don't know what time period that existed but i believe it was early on in the formative years of Conrail altho it could be a rerouted north jersey destined train via CP-Falls and Trenton Line ...
