The Snow train passes Searchmont station in a cloud of snow dust in February 1999 with 7551 and 6596 leading. By 1999 Freight units often handled the winter Snow train as the F's were often away in Gladstone-Sault Ste. Marie freight service and the power laying over during the day from the freights north of Steelton was readily available to run up to Canyon and return, then be serviced and still leave on northbound freight 11 near midnight.

    Where there any other WCs with that inscription on flanks? If not, this unit I saw a few years ago in the deadline at Silvis, Illinois NRE facility.

    7551 was the only one with Customer Minded Employees on the side.
