(erielack) Former EL SD45-2's spotted in Conway!

[<RWisneski_@_njtransit.com>]

NS 1702 & 1700 were the hind two on a 5-unit set of power leading NS 19G
(Oak Island, NJ - Conway, PA manifest) out of northern NJ on Friday
(2/23) morning. The train had over 130 cars, which seems pretty regular.
The third unit in the consist was NS 5287, (which, if I researched this
correctly, is ex Conrail 8086, nee Penn Central 8086, a GP 38-2) which
probably is also headed for Altoona for inspection/servicing.

Found these 2 Gems under the sanding towers at Conway yesterday. 
Was an interesting surprise.  Hopefully they continue to service the NS
for many more years.
 
1700 was former EL 3669
1702 was former EL 3674
