NYC PRR C&O & L&N Diesels - 1956
This is a shot taken at the Cleveland Union Terminal enginehouse by David Sweetland in 1956. What a line up...three E8s and an E6! CUT handled over 200 trains per day and had 16 platforms.

It is listed as Cleveland, but Cincy is a better possibility.

By the way, there was no "enginehouse" at Cleveland Union Terminal.

The electrics were maintained at Collinwood (P1a Shed) and Linndale (very small facility which still stands).

The Cleveland Union Terminal diesels (GP's 5900 - 5903 & SW's 9600 - 9603) were maintained at Collinwood.

Could be Collinwood. Or Carey. or Canton. Or Cadiz. Or Chillicothe. Maybe Conneaut! Circleville (home of the pumpkin festival)! Chardon! Celina! Cambridge! Or Chrissie Hynde's favorite, Cuyahoga Falls.
