This forum is a companion site to the "Conrail Modelers Resource" site & is for modelers & railfans alike. The goal of this forum is to establish a place modelers & railfans can share & learn about the fallen flag railroad Conrail to help them with modeling & general knowledge. Hopefully over time we can develop a database of knowledge to save time when doing research & assist in modeling topics.
Posts should be limited to true Conrail topics (1976-1999) & not current railfan reports or equipment now owned by NS/CSXT in it's post 1999 state unless it in reference to an additional research avenue (i.e.- additional pics of ___ can be found in private ownership at......)
Posts which are not related to Conrail will be removed. For sale postings are permitted as long as they are Conrail prototype or Conrail modeling related.
