NS Morrisville Connecting Track and Morrisville Line Plymouth Meeting PA November 11 2014
 
On a crisp fall day, NS 14G rolls through CP King.
14G took the siding to meet a west bound at CP Plymouth
One thing 14G is known for is its assortment of steel coil cars. Since Conrail-built coil cars were some of the last cars built for the railroad, they should be around for many more years.
Of course, in the years to come, many will suffer an identity crisis, like former NYC car CR 623722, with hoods becoming mismatched.
There there are cars like CR 627190: a car with Conrail reporting marks wearing Penn Central Jade Green paint and topped with mismatched NS hoods. A modeler's dream.
