New Haven Railroad EP-5's motor # 375 & another, along with a Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 motor is seen in the open pit area between Pennsylvania Station and the Post Office building in New York City, New York, 1964
New Haven Railroad EP-5's motor # 375 & another, along with a Pennsylvania Railroad GG-1 motor is seen in the open pit area between Pennsylvania Station and the Post Office building in New York City, New York, 1964. The motors are spotted on stub end storage tracks awaiting their next assignments. On the right is a car from a multiple unit train, The Long Island Railroad and transit trains from New Jersey also use the station for commuter train service. Next to the foreground track you can see the overrunning third rail installation. When the New Haven Railroad EP-5 motors use the New York Central third rail system for Grand Central Terminal service, it is of the under running design. The tracks to the right of the EP-5's lead into the tunnel opening portal under the Post Office, but will be reduced down to two tracks, one for each of the two tunnels that go under the Hudson River into New Jersey.
