RDG SW1500 2759
Title:  RDG SW1500 2759
Description:  RDG SW1500 2759 (CR 9598) and N4 class cabin 92887 take a brief rest from working Abrams yard on February 12, 1977. This was the last week that Abrams yard power remained pure Reading Lines. All SW1500's and their caboose mates, and all GP-7's were untouched by CR stencils. Though not working the yard, there were two SW1500's with small CR stencils in the engine terminal. The following week would see CR stencils applied to SW1500 9595 (RDG 2756) and GP-7's 5817 (RDG 625), 5828 (RDG 626), and 5835 (RDG 633).
