RF&P 126
Title:  RF&P 126
Description:  The RF&P took great pride in their locomotive maintenance and as their engines began to see use off line it was always a sore spot that they didn't come back in the same condition. Judging by the fuel spill shine on the tank, the folks at Bryan Park won't be too happy. RF&P 126 helps move a piggyback train over CSX iron in Riverdale (now Riverdale Park), Md. Date approximate.

RF&P 143
Title:  RF&P 143
Description:  In the 1980s CSX's former B&O Capitol Sub between Baltimore & Washington DC started to become much more colorful as foreign power made regular appearances. Some of my favorite foreign power engines were those of the RF&P, which often showed up on piggyback trains. Here RF&P 143 leads CSX 2596 (in Family Lines gray), and RF&P 126 south (railroad west) through Riverdale, MD (now called Riverdale Park) on an overcast winter day. Date is approximate.
