Those are EMD F3's.

We have this ex-Erie real close to us. It's an E though, not an F.

For your catalog of trivial information EMD model 'F' locomotives had 2 axle trucks and Model 'E' had 3 axle trucks.

This is the Erie in it's prime. In the Conrail era a lot of track was removed (parallel routes and all that.) Most of what remains is now under Norfolk Southern ownership.

Now, aren't you so much better for all that information? ;-)
