Checkerboard in Cleveland
Title:  Checkerboard in Cleveland
Description:  Conrail no. 6278 is one of four Snowbird-painted C628s still in service with the Lehigh Valley at the time of Conrail's formation. Interesting how the flag patch more or less matches the shape, definitiely more careful than the black dip this loco would receive later. John C. Benson photo, from the Ralph L. Phillips collection of the Bay State Model Railroad Museum.
