Remarks & Notes

We are at or near the highest point (elev. 1676') on the Jersey Central (CNJ). The EMD SD35s with a westbound freight have just met a Lehigh Valley eastbound, and are beginning the steep descent to Ashley (elev. 650'). The Lehigh Valley helper set, which cut off from the eastbound, will follow the CNJ freight west as far as Laurel Run, where they will regain LV rails to Coxton. LV EMD GP9 No. 301 was one of the two(?) units that later received the experimental yellow and tuscan paint scheme.

The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.
