Viewing Album: Conrail lashes up 10 units at Harrisburg in July of '77. Enola was hopping too!

By:	Alan Page
Dates:	7/9/1977 - 8/17/1977
Album Info:	A lashup of 10 black and blue units roll through Harrisburg in July, 1977. Enola was hopping with CNW and CN leased power, and an interesting visitor, an ATSF F-7B. Later in August, my railfan buddy captured a still in PC paint U23C working the hump, and a GP9 towing a pair of GG1's through Harrisburg.
