Central Railroad of New Jersey ALCO RS3 #1541 leads an unusual train ES99 at Delaware Water Gap on June 24, 1972. Because of Hurricane Agnes the CNJ at Elizabethport had no 6-axle power for this train on this day. The three little units managed to get this large train as far as the passing siding at this location. Train SE98 coming from Scranton with three SD units would arrive shortly and the two trains would swap power.
