In another forum there's a discussion about hauling produce. I once saw a PBS documentary on the Salad Bowl Express which--if I rememer correctly--ran on Conrail as the NPSE, and at Selkirk, it got split: some went to Hunts Point Ave. in the Bronx [on SEOP?], and some went east on the B&A. Is that job still running? UP still runs lots of reefers, and they have a "perishable" designation on those trains [eg. QFRNPP]. Just wondering. It was coast-to-coast service. It might have been early in the run-through power arrangement, too.
I've got a national geographic VHS that details this train from start to end, cool flick. There's a cab-ride segment in the Bronx were I think local kids are chucking rocks at the locomotive as it heads for the yard. Sorry I cant offer any info on it's present day status.
