RE: (erielack) EL C628s and numbering

["Gripp, William [NCSUS]" <WGRIPP_@_NCSUS.JNJ.COM>]

As there were no 2700s, I would think the EL would have put these in the
2700, saving the 2750 range for a different 2750 HP loco that might have
come along later.

I tend to doubt the EL would have had any 628s anyway.  In their zeal for
high HP C-Cs (SD45s and U33/36Cs), the EL would likely had at least C630s if
not C636s.
