Inside the cab of SRNJ M420 # 801:

Hey Gonzo, got any pics of SRNJ 727 or 728? They're old friends of mine.

Are those the F units? I don't have any digitals of them, only time I ever chased them was back in 2000 or so...

That's the ones.  ;D  When I was a kid they spent a lot of time idling in my backyard (literally!) working the Blue Row Tipple. That was when they were still orange-and-black.



Here's a pic of them (photographer unknown, but thanks for sending it to me whoever you are!) together. Usually, 721B was to be found in between them. There are a couple more pics on one of my pages at http://www.westernallegheny.com/warr/warr1.html

Lee, if I recall correctly, this is MDDE's southern rail line, isn't it? Or was this closer to Seaford and therefore part of NS's operation?

It's on the Seaford - Cambridge line of the MDDE.
