CR An old CR picture

I found this picture when going through some stuff... I can imagine I was really excited when I took this one in 1993.... little did I know that CR blue would become a regular site on the NS for me

I don't know off the top of my head... I'll have to get out the original string of photographs to see. Looking at the consist and date, I am guessing it is probably a C39-8, but it may be a C36 Another excuse to dig in the shoebox (er, I mean the archives )

Awesome photo Harold , that looks the fuel dock at Stanley Yard in Toledo

 

Thanks Dave,
The picture was taken at "Glenwood Yard" in Raleigh. I grew up only a couple of blocks away. It belonged to the "original" Norfolk Southern (the one that was absorbed into the Southern Railway). It has a "modern" brick yard tower and the fueling racks that you see, plus a small car shop. It had an engine shed (and inspection pit)that was dismantled years ago
