Freshly rebuilt #322 was in the lead of this extra-powerful consist in May 1980.

New London:

Four locos lead the train Approaching New London Departure

A line-up of four of the GBW's eight Alco C-424s leads a westbound train as it approaches New London.  The Green Bay & Western acquired five ex-Conrail locomotives in 1980 after they were rebuilt by General Electric at the ex-Erie Railroad shops in Hornell, N.Y.

The reason for the extra power on this train became clear at New London; the two lead units were set out for a work extra; the train then departed with only two locomotives.

Thanks goes out to Bill Christopher for sharing these high-resolution photos.
