Conrail is only a couple of months old in this June 1976 view at Meadville, Pa, so the cab track still looks EL. The lineup includes C881, C263, and C196, Conrail class N8D, N3A, and N3. Three variations of EL paint schemes are seen here, but hands down my favorite was the C881, which unfortunately spent little time under Conrail ownership. The C263 shows as still existing, in of all places Veto, Alabama.
