Amtrak 934, with mismatched numberboards, leads a Northeast Regional north out of 30th Street Station on a sunny and very warm Saturday. In the backfround, another AEM7 leads a westbound Keystone service train out of 30th Street. I have never seen this happen, though I encourage interesting things such as this! |
