Glint of steel |
Description: |
My dad, uncle, and grandfather all went to Syracuse. Thus, football games were an important facet of their lives. This day in October of 1953 saw the Orangemen playing West Point. Dad was a senior that year, and my uncle Pete was a freshman. My grandparents lived on Long Island, so coming up to West Point for the game was not a long drive-not that long trips bothered them. I believe my grandfather, Frank Beckett, shot this NYC train across the Hudson River from the field. My guess is its a grab shot. He saw the train coming down the river and blasted off a frame, just because. At this point, its likely the power is a pair of Es-its too far away to tell if theyre E7s or E8s, Central had both-or possibly PAs or one of the few FMs NYC rostered, though either of those are unlikely here. Whatever they had, its a beautiful scene. |

New Haven power |
Description: |
The state of Connecticut financed the rebuild of a group of four FL 9s. Ideally meant for service in that state, they went right into the general pool. This was inevitable, since the maintenance base was at Harmon, and theyd have to get there somehow. This one is on a Poughkeppsie train at Garrison. |
