E33 |
 |
The Virginian originally ordered the E33's, but Norfolk & Western stopped all electric operations when they purchased the VGN. N&W sold the units to the New Haven, which is how Conrail acquired them. (New Photos: Mar 1, 2004) |

E40 |
 |
In 1956, GE built ten EP-5 passenger locos for New Haven. The units had two pantographs collecting 10,000v AC, which an Ignitron rectifier converted to DC, a small roof pantaograph, and a 600v DC 3rd-rail shoe. Penn Central reclassed EP-5's as E-40's. Most EP-40's were mothballed in Harrisburg on April 1, 1976, and then retired in 1977. (New Photos: Feb 6, 2000) |

E44 |
 |
Conrail inherited their E44's from Penn Central, which inherited them from the Pennsylvania Railroad. E44's were numbered CR 4400-4437 & 4460-4465, wherease the E44A's were numbered CR 4438-4459. (New Photos: Aug 13, 2000) |

GG1 |
 |
In 1935, industrial designer Raymond Loewy gave the GG1 its famous style-lines. PRR assigned GG1's to 4800-4938, which PC and CR retained. While associated with passenger service on the Northeast Corridor and the Philadelphia-Harrisburg mainline, the GG1 also hauled freight. Conrail retired most GG1's in 1979, but several lingered on for at least another year. (New Photos: May 30, 2004) |

E10B |
 |
Conrail inherited the E10B from Niagra Junction. In December 1980, Conrail overhauled 4750, 4752, and 4753, fitting them with a smaller pantograph and 3-rail shoes, painting them black with the MTA logo, and then assigning them to Harmon, replacing the aging S2E's. CR stored then disposed 4751, 4754, and 4755. (New Photos: Jun 12, 1999) |

S2E |
 |
The S2E's were some of the oldest, if not oldest, locomotives on Conrail's roster. They served in the New York area and were never renumbered. (New Photos: Oct 24, 2002) |
