New York Central train 315 stands at Bellefontaine, Ohio, on July 16, 1960. The E7s still wear lightning stripes, but the train is already all mail and express cars with a single coach. On the eve of Amtrak in 1971, potentials passengers petitioned Penn Central to carry privately owned passenger cars on this run, which was by then mail only, as a final farewell to the intercity passenger train.
