Caught RN-16 the other day.The power consisted of an Atlas 40-2,two proto 30's and an Atlas stand in for a RDG 30-C.








A few pics of the rolling stock being pulled west.




The end was protected by an Atlas non-prototypical RDG caboose.I RDGized it by applying silver paint to simulate the modernized window application.

On another day RN-16 had 4 six axle units leading the charge.The sd's are proto units I did quite a few years back,unfortunately,the units do not have the extended cab.The third unit is an Atlas and the last is Bowser.

Nice surprise...Pullman green absent on this short extra leaving the New St. Nicholas breaker on the Mine Hill.



494 is an Atlas model.614 Proto model.





A pair of freshly shopped HTf hoppers.


By the look of the loads,I would guess the first three WM hoppers and the following RDG hopper were pulled from the truck dump on the K&P coal company siding.



Three 100 tonners fill out the rear.


Heading to West Cressona.


The 92871,a regular on the Mine Hill.
