Oil Creek and Titusville R.R. + General Electric pictures

These are some Oil Creek and Titusville Railroad pictures:









This is the engine that pulled the
passenger cars. It even carried 7
or 8 freight cars. The other picture is a passenger
car.

There is even a passenger car that you can send post cards to you or other people from the train.
This is the only post office on rail in the US.

I also drove around General Electric (GE). GE is where they make train locomotives. Here are some pictures:











Kind of hard to see but it says
GE transportation








I found this on the edge of General Electric. I'm not sure what company it is.









These pictures are near General Electric:




These CSX engines are at the same place as the BNSF (below)




This is a BNSF engine that looks like it just came out of General Electric because it is so clean. It is sitting on a siding owned by CSX.
