Former PC Prime Mover Car #73600
Title:  Former PC Prime Mover Car #73600
Description:  Unusual car built from an old F7B unit whose purpose was to carry prime movers during rebuilds in the Penn Central era. Technically, this is now a Conrail item since the date is April, 1980. I cannot find it listed on a Conrail roster however. This is not to be confused with Conrail's Q1 prime mover test car, formerly CR 6097, nee-EL 3632, which wore the EL's bicentennial paint.
