Richmond,Fredercksburg & Potomac GP35 134, GP40-2 143, GP40 125 with the northbound Tropicana Orange Juice Train crosses the Occoquan at Woodbridge, VA 9/14/85.
The good ole days - when there weren't idiots who felt compelled to "tag" (vandalize). So used to it now that it's shocking to see there is no graffiti on the cars.
Yeah, pretty much, except for the part where the RF&P takes it to B-more and CR taking it to NY. The Seaboard takes it from Bradenton, FL to Richmond, VA, where the RF&P takes it from there to Washington D.C., and then Conrail takes it from there to Kearny, NJ.

I always know I'm close to DC when the train crosses that bridge. If your on the optimal side you can look over and see US 1 and I-95.
I also know I'm leaving the south.

Also how sweet to see a train without the massive trash of 21st century graffitti!

Ah, the old days when trains still had cabooses. I don't think they look right without them.

the "juice train" trumped everything except passenger service-- the southern trains would be delayed sometimes an hour or more
