Conrail crash test dummy still looking good
Title:  Conrail crash test dummy still looking good
Description:  This engine was used in Operation Lifesaver demonstrations on conrail, basically it was a shell of a loco that was pushed by a real locomotive and rammed into cars parked at crossings to show the dangers of disobeying crossing signals. All doors on were welded shut and the horn was removed. Why this engine ended up at Rail Rhodes i have no clue.

Title:  Conrail crash test dummy looking a little worse since last time i shot it.
Description:  The elements are taking a toll and rust streaks are starting to form on its blue paint. Thats not too bad but what is a issue is that some low life retard wanna be gansters have defaced the unit as well as several others of Great Waltons.
