Conrail is six months but we were lucky this night at Fort Wayne Ind at Jct Mike tower Sept 1976 with three Erie GP-35's crossing the N&W .We used two flash guns this night.Long time friend Steve Smedley were all out this night trying to get Erie trains.

PennCentral cut back the Pennsy route in favor of the NYC route. Back in Pennsy's heyday, it would have had more tracks crossing the Wabash. In fact, it looks like it had four tracks crossing the Wabash with diamonds on a sharp angle.
