Fallen flag and succesor railroad circa 1976 in H.O Scale.

 

 

I took this photograph last week, at the Oak Park Society of Model

Engineers,H.O Scale Model Railroad Club in Oak Park Illinois.

 

In a scene out of the mid 1970's, a jade green box car from the bankrupt

fallen flag railroad Penn Central ( 1968 - 1976) is coupled to a modern

blue 1970's era box car from successor railroad Conrail ( 1976 - 1999)

 

I photographed this image, inside one of the rarely photographed

helix sections of the layout.
