8835 is former Detroit Terminal 116. DT was one of the smaller lines CR picked up after the initial merger. 116 was the only SW-7 the DT owned.

8875, former Lehigh Valley 220, rests in the snow at Akron. What strikes me odd about this locomotive are the exhaust stacks, which look as if they had been recently repainted silver.

Note the differences between this former PC unit and the Lehigh Valley units below. Check the headlights, horns, and spark arrestors on the exhaust stacks, and the pilot. This unit capable of MU operations, unlike the LV units. Former PC 9097.

It figures that I keep getting photos of the same SW-7 in blue! Here we see 9097 a few years later farther south on the system.

Nearly a year after the formation of Conrail this CNJ unit still does duty in its original predecessor logo. I actually modeled and super detailed one of these units in the 1970s. But I put the wrong number on it! Not many people saw that model.

I love that huge headlight! This unit was not able to MU with other locos, therefore had the straight pilot handrails. This was also a common spotting feature among SW-900's and SW-1200's. Survived on roster as CR 8879.
