An interesting assortment of power has congregated side-by-side at Lehighton, Pennsylvania. From left to right are a Conrail SW1500, a Maine Central GP38, a Conrail SD45, and a Delaware & Hudson C420. The SW1500 is most likely to be assigned to the former CNJ Nesquehoning Valley branch, and it wasn’t unusual for a Conrail road unit to be set off in Lehighton. I’m unsure of the circumstances around the presence of the D&H and MEC units, but there is a crew in the 252. The LV roundhouse is still standing in this June, 1984 view.
