-> Well, I saw an interesting light engine move today, possibly a
-> glimpse into the future: Conrail, Conrail, C&NW, UP, NS. Two mergered
-> companies right there,
-> possibly another in the future?
-> Has there been a "complete, and official, final" renumbering of SP
-> and CNW units
-> into UP yet? I see reports and then a month later there are
-> corrections to it.
-> Can't wait to see how CSX and NS divvy up Conrail's power. Should be
-> sort of like choosing up sides for a sandlot baseball game. Each

-> with the scrawny little kid with
-> thick glasses (B23-7's, etc)?

hehehe, RailNews Aug97 issue has a listing of the renumbering process, I
saw a picture somewhere that was a Conrail unit with CSXT stenciled in
under the cab numbers, reminds me of when we were kids, the scrawny kid
was always the last one picked for teams...you nailed the B23-7 right
on...got a picture in our morning paper today, it shows a Conrail
freight on the ground with firefighters spraying water on one of the
locomotives in Salem, Ohio, one of the two locomotives involved was unit
#3286, nice picture actually, the wreck is being blamed on a hotbox...
