Four (4) for the Reading & Northern .... 15 Feb 2019
Author: DTWilson

Buried in the middle of the power for Q316-14 were Four (4) SD50-2's listed as sold to the Reading & Northern.

1) At Keyser, WV, Q316-14 waits for the Conductor to rejoin the head-end after stopping to pickup the outbound traffic.

2) The four (4) former CSX SD50-2's for the Reading & Northern.

3) 8606

If I am not mistaken...that 8507 was the first loco to receive the new 'dark future' CSX paint...prior to the current 'boxcar' scheme...
