Re: (erielack) Erie Split Mains - egg on face Question

Guys:

   I don't have it handy, but if someone would pull out a copy of EL In
Color Voume 2 (NYS), there is a caption that accompanies a photo of an SD45
leading on the Bear Lake line.  Said caption explains what was abandoned and
why (Conrail, grades?).    The unit is in sort of a cut and looks to be
about to pass under photographer standing on an overpass.   Should be found
somewhere west of Jamestown -
