When the VGN and Norfolk & Western merged, it became NW 236. After NW dropped electrication, it moved over to the New Haven roster as NH 305. Along comes Penn Central which renumbered it 4605 as seen here. Later it would move onto the Conrail roster as their CR 4605. An unknown photographer captured this moment in the PC roster.
