Posted by Olog-hai on Fri Apr 24 22:52:40 2009, in response to Color Photo of B&O National Limited at CNJ Broad Street, Elizabeth NJ, posted by Olog-hai on Fri Apr 24 22:18:06 2009. Mr. Krone has some remarkable work.More of his stuff: Same date, and a CNJ train being pulled by a Baldwin double-ender (A1A-A1A, dual-service, two cabs). Passing by Smith Cadillac on West Grand Street.  This one's quite remarkable. The Reading Crusader; same cars as the streamlined Pacifics hauled, but this time with two FP7s pulling 'em. Going towards Reading Terminal in Philly. (Same date as above. Note today's NEC far in the background.)  Different date (7/25/56); westbound B&O #3, the Diplomat, heading for St. Louis.  Now some sad contrast. Different photographer (Charles J. Freericks), and two decades later (10/15/78). Conrail shops drill headed for Elizabethport; looks like it was taken from the Cherry Street bridge, so that's the Chilton Street bridge in the background. (NJT used to do this before the MMC opened; used to see F40PHs and Comet IIs.) This pic makes you want to live in 1957, don't it? (It ain't me stuck in 1957; it's NJDOT.)  |
