Fulton Junction
Three WM SD35s lead what is likely SB-3, the westbound "Stone Train" at Fulton Junction in Baltimore. WM used trackage rights over the PRR to gain access to Sparrow's Point and it's large Bethlehem Steel facility. Prior to this routing, cars were floated over the bay via Port Covington.
Just ahead lays Walbrook Junction, and the train will take the East Sub towards Emory Grove, where it will diverge again to the Dutch Line. Walbrook Jct is where the Tide Sub also connected, which was the line into Port Covington.
No date or photographer on this dupe, but it should be prior to 1970 when the SD35s got red/white/black. JL Sessa collection.
