RS3 on the Needham branchFor a while in 1971-72, Penn Central assigned a couple former New York Central passenger RS3s to the Needham branch rush hour trains that used standard equipment rather than Budds. On a summer evening, ex-NYC 5527 has turned its train on the wye at Needham Junction and will become part of the nightly deadhead equipment move back to South Station.
