    Hi all! I'm trying to find out a bit about passenger trains coming in and out of Durham, NC in the 50s and 60s. I found the picture below. I believe it's a Southern F3 pullig a passenger train. Hard to see but can anyone tell me any more about the consist in terms of types of cars, etc? Thanks, Jake

    At this angle, it looks more like an "E" unit to me (?). ;)
