Diesel Engine Replaces Locomotive in Troy Yard
The last steam engine at Troy Union Station is replaced by NYC locomotive No. 305 on trial. The 1,280 HP diesel cuts smoke and noise, with crews led by Thomas Neeson praising the change. Fireman Burdick, engineer Malone, and others report smoother operation and quicker adaptation after a week.
