The large and varied rolling stock fleet of Consolidated Rail Corporation probably evolved more during the 1976-1987 period than did that of any other major railroad in North America. Conrail inherited and ill-maintained and substantially obsolete fleet of equipment and needed to improve it.
Change was prompt and continuous. Join sixteen-year Conrail employee Larry DeYoung for a look at the Conrail fleet during 'Big Blues' first eleven years.
Contents include business cars and cabooses through inter-modal equipment and maintenance-of-way equipment.
