Remarks & Notes

After the Delaware & Hudson’s expansion as a result of the Conrail merger, the D&H was short of power, and looked in all directions for additional locomotives. One solution came in the form of a group of ex-Long Island high hood C420’s that had outlived their lease to the LIRR. Although they were patched as D&H assets, I don’t believe that they were around for very long. Here two of them are sandwiched between an ex-LV C420 and an M-K RS3 rebuild on a northbound train (westbound on this line) departing Allentown, Pennsylvania.
