Remarks: The poster is not sure if this is commuter or coach yard move. www.thedieselshop.us claims that NYC 5765-5775 GP7's were numbered 5903-5913 "while in passenger service". This was a stop on a foray to Western N.Y. and later the Ontario side of the falls.

Remarks: Anyone want to take a stab at what train this might have been? Figure mid morning and westbound, pulling NH baggage/express and heavyweight PRR/Pullmans in the 1100-series, this pair of EMDs pauses at Crestline. Obviously, taken in the days before wireless communications and when a railfan could assume the relative importance of a RR line by the number of code lines trackside when in unfamiliar territory. This is the followup shot to this photo.
