Top off the tank and point her towards Sayre....well, maybe not. This former Lehigh Valley GP38AC gets fuel at Collinwood on an unusually nice day for February in NE Ohio. A somewhat cluttered scene with poles, hoses, and even that fire extinguisher, but that's everyday railroading at these kind of locations. One of only 4 of these on Conrail, this unit is actually heading west this day, away from ex Lehigh Valley rails. Ex LV units were always nice to catch as they added a lot of color to the multitudes of ex Penn Central black engines. CR 7657 is ex LV 311, and the good news is she's still with us as NS GP38-2 5516.
