Title:  Amtrak E-8A 495
Description:  Amtrak E-8A 495 rests at 30th St Station in April, 1977. A trio of former PRR E-8A's, now Amtrak 495-497, were on home turf in Philadelphia that day. The ancient olive green RDG MU's in the background were not on home turf, but were pulled off the commuter lines and led by CR GG1's during the strike.
