Viewing Album:  Raritan Central 1100 & 1520 Working The Yard
 
By:Steve Coraggio
Dates:7/26/2019 - 7/26/2019
Album Info:I caught two of Raritan Central's SW 1500's working their yard . The crew was rail fan friendly. After working the yard , the train left to deliver a few cars to customers in Raritan Center. I didn't chase them. Reporting marks source Piedmont&Western RR Club, RR Reporting marks Past & Present. August 10,2019 locomotive info updated/corrected, thanks to friend, fellow railfan and RRPA Contributor Tim Darnell for this information.
