Freight Car Friday

When the Lehigh Valley bought C628’s from Alco in 1965, they were delivered in a striking white, black and red paint scheme and were dubbed “snowbirds” by the local fans. Variants of the snowbird scheme were applied to several classes of freight cars, including this fifty foot covered hopper seen here at Enola, Pennsylvania two years after the LV ceased to exist.
