Description
In September, 2005, a short train comes through Lancaster, South Carolina with the iconic old business office for the railroad in the background. The crew will get on former Southern Railway tracks and shove back to the AmeriSteel plant on Riverside Road.
L&C SW1200 #94 was built for the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1957 as PRR 7917, then became a Penn Central unit (PC 9017) after the merger with New York Central and, of course, Conrail (CR 9336) after the government take over of that railroad. Conrail sold it to the L&C in 1996. It was sold by L&C in 2016 to Florida Central as their FCEN 94.
