Re: (erielack) EL Snow Operations



Paul,

I have slides of an EL GP7 and Erie flanger taken in '79 at Allendale and
Waldwick.  The EL Geep is renumbered but not yet repainted.  Also have a
bright yellow Conrail plow in Allendale in '83.  Finally Conrail plow on the
back of a freight (no snow) in '78.
