Album Info:The Trenton Cutoff provided many great moments during late 1976, early 1977. At dusk in late November, a pair of GG1's were transferring an EP-5 westbound to Harrisburg. On a cold December day, a pair of E-44's led a funeral train transferring a pair of still Tuscan Red PC E-7A's, and a NYC E-7B to scrap. In Jan/Feb while keeping warm in the cab of an SD45, a pair of E44's rolled eastbound with mixed freight. Finally, my buddy caught an RS3M on the Cutoff in early February.
