I was in Altoona today and grabbed some quick photos! I seen a possible modeling project engine Q#1. A Conrail test engine, looks cool, wondering if other roads have engines like this. Here are a couple of the photos!
The turn table
The scrap line PC lives!
Lots of power!
Nice Pictures!!! (Talk about lots of power, dang, thats a lot of locos!!!)
Great Pics, csxmu! That’s the first time I’ve seen a pic of “Q-1”. It started life as an Erie Lackawanna SD45 #3632, which was one painted as one of their Bicentennial units. It wound up in the shape it’s in courtesy of Conrail (don’t get me started).
Here’s a link to it in better times-
