Drawing of the Day-January 21st, 2016-Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Bicentennial GP7

Today I drew Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Bicentennial GP7 1501. It worked in #Pittsburgh #PA #commuter service. I have now drawn GP7 #1501 in its later Pittsburgh & Lake Erie scheme, as a Youngstown & Austintown locomotive and as an Ohio Central locomotive. This engine is remembered by quite a few that worked on it.

Drawing of the Day August 14, 2015 Port Authority of Allegheny County "PA Train"

When is an F-Unit also a PA? When it is the "PA Train" of the Port Authority of Allegheny County! I just drew PA Train F-Unit #6690 for fans of the PA Train.
I read about the PA Train in Railpace magazine as a teenager and remember seeing its commuter trains side by side with Conrail and Chessie System locomotives.  I thought it would be a great Flashback Friday to draw PA Train F-Unit #6690.
