That's because it's a Penn Central train.   "Technical difficulties" was an understatement to that road.  :trollface:

Glad to see my hometown railroad (Louisville & Nashville) represented right up front!


Gotta say, that PC train does look good...

I would give you an upvote for this, but your reputation is currently at a number that, if changed, would not represent Ed's annual signature BANTRAK photo.

Here's a Clerihew about Ed. K.

Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
But mention his law
and you've pulled your last straw!

Alternate version:
Ed Kapucinski
Every night, he plants a new tree.
He asks excitedly "Did you say Ménage à Trois?"
No, I said "Ed's Law."

Beautiful...  :D Only one nit to pick...

The LPG Tank car with the orange band is a 1980's animal, a Canadian regulation to make the cars more visible for first responders.

Here's a blog post from our own @cv_acr that gives some background.

that aside I'm loving the Pre Conrail goodness
