Remarks & Notes

A huge assortment of stored Conrail engines could be found at East Altoona in the late 80's. Most wore faded blue paint, but there were still a few in PC black and even one or two in EL and Reading paint.

These are engines that are either already scrapped, are in deadlines, or they're in severe danger of being scrapped. Not everything can be preserved.
