Conrail's Other Green Passenger Car Fleet Photo Roster by the Numbers

[rdg5308]

I’ve already posted the photo roster of the Conrail green OCS fleet. Conrail had another fleet of green cars not associated with OCS.  Here is a photo roster of the specialty cars that made up that fleet.


CONRAIL 19 – DYNAMOMETER CAR





CONRAIL 20 – RESEARCH AND TEST CAR

CONRAIL 21 – TRACK GEOMETRY CAR

CR 47004 – CONRAIL POLICE DEPARTMENT CAR - I’ve also included a shot of CR 47003 which I think may be the same car – same window arrangements on both sides.  Although they may have had two identical cars, I only saw one go into the shops as CR 47003 and one come out as CR 47004.



And to wrap it up, I’ll end with the former CONRAIL POLICE CAR PD-1 which was replaced by CR 47004.


That’s it.  Thanks for looking.

CR 24 appears to be one of the former WWII hospital cars, most of which went to RBB&B.
