Title:
Dead Line
Description:
Enola engine facility is filled with diesels awaiting their final moments. There were many SW types present, marking the end of the end cab switcher era on Conrail. New GP 15's and B23's, as well as demoted U23's and GP 38's of various types took over much of the local and yard work.
