CR2

The last Conrail radio transmissions heard at Conway Yard
Midnight, May 31, 1999, Conrail's last day

Transcript:

Right before midnight someone in yard says:

"Conrail is officially extinct. Goodbye Conrail."

Someone says:

"That's a 10-4 roger."

Youngstown Line Dispatcher says:

"Good axle count. uh, this will be your final Conrail Youngstown Line Out."

A second later, at midnight, the Youngstown Line Dispatcher uses his new call:

"NS Youngstown Line out..."

And that was that. The end of my (still) favorite railroad. Tears still come to my eyes every time I hear this.
