A First Proto Scratch Build - GN Boxcar |

It's an early Spring day in late March 1972 at the Delaware & Hudson Railroad main classification yard in Oneonta, NY. Housed here where the engine shops/repair/rebuild facilities, a 180° roundhouse, major classification yard, etc. in days gone by. The yard at this time is in serious decay as many RIP tracks are full, the roundhouse is abandoned, and very few employees/activities are in evidence. This car, spotted further east of the main yard, was still in active revenue service and I found it intriguing; thus my first freight car photo. |
