Thanks very much for this photo posting. ALLEN Date: 07/10/19 23:37 Re: WM Wednesday- WM 3798 Author: bigkidpgh These two units led a Maple Sugar Express excursion from Grant Street Station in downtown Pittsburgh to Meyersdale, Pa. in the spring sometime in the mid-1980’s. Although I don’t remember the exact date of the excursion, it would be quite a coincidence to have these units paired up randomly. I’m thinking you caught them either directly before or after they pulled the excursion.
see my post below for a pic. https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?11,4623126,4623126#msg-4623126 Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 07/10/19 23:38 by bigkidpgh. Date: 07/12/19 13:26 Re: WM Wednesday- WM 3798 Author: WM303 "Did this become the 6573"?
Yes, it became CSX 6573. After that it became ISRR 6573 and then ISRR 4041. ISRR 4041 is still alive and working for a living in Florida on The Bay Line, a Genesee and Wyoming property. After all these years, it is STILL a straight, unmodified GP40. |
