RDG Alco C424 #5206 - Reading Co |
Description: |
Somehow Reading Alco C424 #5206 has remained uncoated with road grime while its sisters look like they have been through a mud bath. Possibly this is fresh from a wash!?!?! Built by Alco in November of 1963, it moved on to the Conrail roster as CR #2495 when Reading folded. Paul Kuehner photo |
