A set of switchers are beginning their shift on the Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad in Butler, PA. Seen leaving the yard. Rochester and Southern Railroad #3807 GP40-3 has a very long history. Built as LN 4028 (GP38AC) in May 1971. Then became CSX 2158 (GP38AC), HHLC 205 (GP38AC), and VTR 205 (GP38AC). Rochester and Southern Railroad is one of many owned by Genesee and Wyoming Company. G&W also owns B&P Railroad which explains why these engines are here. |
