Actually, quite common at the end of steam here. I have video of B&O P-9s and T-3s leading the Capitol Ltd. out of Cumberland Md.
The steam was usually leading as a helper, easier to cut off, plus, the steam lines did not pass thru the steamer for heating the cars.
What impressed me, was that the diesels were Fairbanks Morse units. Cab was definatly an Erie Built, the booster appeared to ne a C-Liner!
Vid of them is RARE!!!! the two together, well, along with the Niagara[8D]

when on you tube,be adventurous,type what you want,ie doubleheaded,csx,etc,i spent hours there yesterday,found loads of niagras,lionel,athearn,its an aladins gave for the modeller as well as the dedicated train spotters,to be honest i was looking for more tyco,but its early days yet,i was thinking it might be good to have a you tube section for finds,but its the storage that is my worry,we all know what graphics do regarding space,a way round that would be to have a mediater who passes or fails on its content before listing ken
