In July 1984, one month old SD50 6757 and two month old 6749 are moving forward to re-couple to their train in yard in Reading, PA after setting off a cut of empty auto frame flats for Dana Corporation's Parish plant. Visible are two or Reading's landmarks, Reading High School to the left of 6757 and the Pagoda on Mt. Penn. 6757 went to CSX and 6749 to NS. Dana closed the Parish plant in 2000 and while both CR and NS have tried to close it to varying degrees, Reading yard still survives.
