Remarks & Notes

Pair of GG1's waiting for work while parked on the PRR-PRSL west-bound connector (the line that connects Atlantic City NJ with the Pennsy main line north of Phila.) Apparently, not enough traffic warranted use of the two track line, so the west-bound direction could be used as a "parking lot". Junction with the main line (Frankford Jct.) is just behind the camera, and the Delaware river crossing is up the line to the right. Scanned from a 35 mm slide taken around 1966.

An exclamation attributed to TV presenter Jeremy Clarkson, it is this eponymous expression of which certain images convey man and machine versus nature . . .
