Returning "BT Turn"
Title:  Returning "BT Turn"
Description:  This is probably a BT Turn. Date is an estimate, location _ppears to be the connector track between the New York Susquehanna and Western and Conrai's Bergen County Line. If you look closely at the upper section of the short&high hood, you can see where the New York Central "Cigar Band" era number is starting to come through the black paint. #5652 was delivered to the New York Central in September of 1951 as a class DRS-4e. It retained its number under Penn Central, as a class ERS-15. It never did get Conrail paint, winding up in the Elizabethport scrap line by 1983.
