Album Info:The former EL yard in Secaucus, NJ was busy at the beginning of March in 1979 with many EMD switchers and GP7's remaining in EL paint. Joining the EL power were an SW1 and GP9 in LV paint, an ex-PC GP35, GP38-2, and GP40, and a pair of CR blue Alco's, RS11 7651 based in Bethlehem, and monster C636 6789. In Feb, 1978, my buddy caught GP7 5679 still in CNJ paint working at Croxton.
