Nostalgia & History > Chessie System Pittsburgh PA 1984-85Date: 04/08/20 08:38 Chessie System Pittsburgh PA 1984-85 Author: RRTom 1 - Caboose eastbound on P&LE at Station Square, 1984
2 & 3 - WB Chessie mixed freight on P&LE at Station Square, December 1 1985, with their typical 2 units up front elephant style. What was unusual for me was the second unit was a six axle WM. At this time, Chessie System could run fully-enclosed tri-level autoracks and there were several in this train. Conrail was still limited to semi-enclosed (i.e. no roof) autoracks through Pittsburgh as their Pennsylvania mainline clearance project had not yet happened. Edited 2 time(s).
