Bruce,

Dad first had the U33Bs 9/24/84 and the last date was 11/22/85.

Hope this helps.

Hi Ed!
???? I had forgotten about the G&J. So I will need to do the G&J and Vermont patch .....as these are the only 2 I lack so far.
????? Plus I just learned about the short-lived ex-Conrail U33Bs. Found Images on the RR Picture Archive, and rr-fallenflags.org. These were acquired during the dark years of Guilford. DOes anyone know when they appeared and when they left?

Hi!
?? Or family is moving so I had to pack away my N-Scale locos and cars. When packing up my D&H RS-3s I found I had them in the following paint schemes:

All Black
Black with yellow scare stripes
Lightning Stripes without any side numbers
Lightning Stripes with small, low numbers in Gothic
Lightning Stripes with small, low numbers in Railroad Roman
Lightning tripes with Large, high-mounted numbers
Overall Blue "Dip" scheme
Overall Blue Dip Scheme with Scare Stripes
P&W Patch
and Vermont RR Patch

My question is were there any others?

Thanks!

Bruce

I have not found anything in the way of photos of any kind of engine facilities at Kenwood Yard or did they just service the engines at Colonie back in the early 1970's? Did they refuel engines there? if so, was there any kind of infrastructure for it or did they just call a fuel truck? Was there any anything else there, like a sanding tower, etc.??

In fact, I found very little photographic evidence of the yard office. I have have only 3 photos from around 1990 and have to use all 3 to to get nearly a whole image of the north and west side of the building from a distance.

Thanks,
Ken
