Remarks & Notes |
This freshly repainted Conrail N20 caboose made its long-awaited debut on ME-2 after being repainted in Metuchen Yard. CR 22137 had been a tagged, rusting eyesore for a decade or more. For years there was talk of restoring it to some form of Conrail blue paint. What was accomplished has exceeded my expectations! 22137 is assigned to Conrail's Metuchen Yard and is a regular feature on ME-2 as it serves customers along the Northeast Corridor between Metuchen and North Brunswick. It's worth noting that 22137 is an actual caboose and not a "shove platform". Its presence is appreciated by crews for the frequent reverse moves that this job makes. 22137 was built for the Reading Company in 1970 by International Car Corporation in Kenton, OH. |
