In the summer of 2015, I sat down with former Erie Lackawanna/Conrail/Norfolk Southern employee Keith Robbins. Robbins started his railroad career with the Erie Lackawanna, and eventually retired in 2012 with Norfolk Southern. I spoke with him about some of his favorite railroad memories and what it was like to work on the railroad as a tower operator.
As I post this video on the 40th birthday of Conrail, I'd like to dedicate all of those who helped to make Conrail great.
