CR in NY State colors |
| Description: |
The funding for commuter trains following the start up of Conrail was convoluted. NY State put up a big pile of money via the MTA to keep the trains running, with Conrail the contract operator. Thus we got some FL 9s painted in the PC paint pattern, but in NYSDOT colors, lettered for Conrail. Heres one in Grand Central |

CR FL9s |
| Description: |
Conrail operated the commuter lines out of Grand Central on the former NYC and NH for several years til Metro North took over. Some FL 9s actually were painted Conrail during this time. Here are a pair at Danbury on a Friday afternoon, having just completed their trip from GCT. |
