I hope I'm not going off topic, but I see there is a surviving conrail engine thread. Any pictures or videos of any conrail switchers? And are any conrail switchers still in service wearing conrail blue paint?

also any conrail caboose's still in service with the blue paint?

Head out to Altoona if you want to see them in person. NS 2214 SW1500 was sitting right next to the road. NS 2207 was still in Conrail paint too.
