Eric Berg General This is a nice shot...is this route 8 in the foreground? Is this near the I-65 overhead? 12/4/2010 6:39:53 AM
Chuck Zeiler General I don't know which route is in the foreground. Yes, I-65 is to the left a couple of miles. A more complete story of this chase is filed under Conrail GP9 7391 at this address: http://chuckzeiler.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=2231516 12/4/2010 10:36:39 AM
Gabe Argenta General Being from Crown Point, this is great. I've seen very few RR photos from my home town. The old Pennsy line ran southeast from town parallel to US 231 (to answer Eric's question). My guess as you said in the other photo would be late 70's. 2/10/2011 11:19:04 PM
Chris Balducci General This is dated June 1, 1982, but the trees in the background have no leaves. Also, I don't think Conrail was still using E8s for freight at this date. Could this be dated sometime in the 1970s? God bless. 12/7/2011 2:35:42 PM
Dave Curtis General Great album Chuck! 2/7/2012 11:25:07 PM
William Marshall General This is a great shot, but it was not taken in Crown Point. Possibly along US 30 east of Valparaiso. 7/15/2012 10:04:43 AM
Eric Berg General This is east of Crown Point along what was S.R. 8 (now U.S. 231) just east of the I-65 overhead and probably around 1970, just after I-65 was completed which is when route 8 at this location went to a divided highway. 11/2/2012 12:58:33 AM
TERRENCE ROBLE General Wow, great power for 1982! 1/5/2013 7:52:04 PM
