Trim power |
| Description: |
Conrail used U23Cs at Enola to work the east end of the yard, trimming bowl tracks and pulling cars out for the departure tracks. Here are four of them waiting for the next move. Conrail had not run an electric train in five years at this point, but there are still a lot of wires over the east end of Enola. |

Pulling out the racks |
| Description: |
The yard trim engines have a cut of auto racks in hand as they work the west end of Enola. This was a common power set for Enola, which for some reason seemed not to get the SD 38/MT6 combination found elsewhere. |
