Still Wears the "J"
Title:  Still Wears the "J"
Description:  Unlike several of her sisters, #671 still wears the orange livery and bears the "J" logo. New to the scene is the turnout from the former GTW mainline onto the former EJE trackage seen here is the forground. To the far right background is the former GTW mainline heading east. At one time, the "J" double tracks curved and crossed GTW, C&O, NYC and EL making a radiating pattern diamond, a nightmare for car drivers and a field day for rail enthusiasts!

Heading into the Sunset
Title:  Heading into the Sunset
Description:  EJE #671 continues her slow, growling trip west into the setting sun. #671 heads toward the only set of tracks it now has to cross - that of the former GTW, now part of the same CN system as the "J". Gone are the tracks for C&O, EL, & NYC that all met in downtown Griffith with the GTW and EJE..
