All this discussion about UP passenger cars on EL trains got me excited about trying to create a picture duplicating this occurrence. The picture is of a westbound train at Harriman, NY, as it would likely appear. The track is the virtual Southern Tier route, ala Port Jervis Line, nee ER Graham Line, for Microsoft Train Simulator (MSTS). The route is modeled circa Conrail before the NS takeover. Rails extend on the from Hillburn Yard north to Port Jervis.  Moodna Viaduct, Campbell Hall, and Otisville Tunnel are in place. For now, scenary is sparadic and stops shy of CP- Sloatsburg. 

Enjoy,
Walter Conklin 

P.S. I sincerely apologize if the actual picture goes out to everyone. This is the first time I ever uploaded an attachment to the photos archives of the list.
