Hard to believe this was 46 years ago. Thank you for posting this wonderful look back!

A great time in railroading history. Someone, in the past on this website, made a comment this was a "dark, boring" time in railroading (bankruptcies, deferred maintenance). Wrong! Two reasons it was exciting.... (1)MANY different rr names on diesels, freight cars AND passenger trains, (2)NO GRAFFITI!

Awesome shot and colors. I agree with Wayne. 1960-1985 is my favorite era of railroading. I'm always commenting about how much I miss those days. So much diversity and color and again no graffiti! Thanks for posting.

I don't like Graffiti so I will agree there and more railroads would be cool but the way I look at it is some of peoples favorite shorelines & regionals come off of big mergers.
