Eastern Railroad Discussion > Pup Power Swap on the D&HDate: 04/05/21 12:50 Pup Power Swap on the D&H Author: PennRailVideos 3/25. Headed up to the NEPA once again, and it seems everytime I'm up that way, Luzurne-Susquehanna is always doing a power swap over NS between Hudson and Avoca. Here SW7 #50, built in 1950 for the Pennsy, is going to be swapped out with SW1200 #1265. Before the NS dispatcher could let LS make the move, northbound 12Z had to get out of the way. Here they come past Hudson with a fresh Dash 9 rebuild on the point.
LS 50 is finally let loose to head up to Avoca, the plan was apparently to bring back 'red boi' 1265.

This engine has flashing ditchlights which I thought was pretty nifty. 1265 was built in 1963 for the Missouri Pacific.
And finally back onto "home" rails at milepost 686.   Date: 04/06/21 09:11 Re: Pup Power Swap on the D&H Author: Gonut1 Good catch! What is a "red boi"?
