EL U34CH #3365 - Erie Lackawanna |
| Description: |
A timid U34CH unit peeks out from the engine house. Built by GE in April of 1971, it was one of 32 built for the joint effort between the New Jersey Department of Transportation and Erie Lackawanna. The partnership was one of the possible solutions to the growing EL debt problem but unfortunately it was too little, too late. To show their NJDOT ownership, the units were painted in a dark blue and silver paint scheme with NJDOT logo and were often called "Bluebirds" by rail enthusiasts. The U34CHs on the weekends were sometimes used in Erie Lackawanna freight service, often being on freight duty from Saturday to Sunday and returning to commuter service Monday morning. In 1976, they came under Conrail control. Unknown photographer |

| Description: |
There were over a dozen active customers on this tangent in 1960 . The Boonton Drill usually ran 30 cars and returned to Hoboken with as many as well as the output from Magor Car shops . The riding on right was a drop point for hot boxes when this was a through freight route . I used to pick the lead from discarded bearing packing for the conductor of drill and received a summer of cab and caboose rides :} |

Erie Lackawanna U34CH 3368 at Dover, New Jersey, on an unknown day in November 1975, Kodachrome by an unknown photographer, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in April 1970 (c/n 37646) classed MPG-34D-6 by EL, it became CR 4168 and was sold to GEC-Alsthom (later Atstom) in 1994 and shipped to Mexico. A U34CH was basically a U36C with some of the traction power diverted for HEP use. Location changed per comment (and additional communications) below by Roger Clare, thanks Roger. |
