    Going by the power car number, I believe this to be RTL #158. Railfans tell us RTLs were fitted with a contact shoe to acquire power from the 600-volt third rail. The idea was to shut down the turbines when operating underground approaching New York, Grand Central Station so the tunnels wouldn't fill up with soot. The contact shoe was only used at the New York end. Looks like this shoe burned. Your corrections are welcomed.
