Another nick name use around the yards was Clown Rail, making
referance to the way the railroad was running it its early years. Like
these clowns could not run a Lionel train. Also at Bethlehem
Engine terminal after a ex-PC engine came in with the PC painted
out and a CR on the nose and side a new one was born. This
engine was so dirty it was infested with cock roaches. The
outbouund crew refused to take it out. When they got the yes you
will speach the engineer called the county health department who
came down and impounded the engine until the extermenator was
called to kill them. After that CR on a black engine meet
Cockroach equipted.
