Remarks & Notes

After slowing to make sure that no one is going to slide into the grade crossing, the engineer notches out Reading, Blue Mountain & Northern U33B 3301 as it works through the sleepy village of Locust Gap, Pennsylvania. The RBM&N’s five ex-Conrail (PC) U33B’s were the first power purchased after it gained control of the former Reading main line west of Reading into the anthracite fields.
