(erielack) EL Geep 7's

[James G Flynn <jimbatt1_@_juno.com>]

        Hey Guys,
        
        If we could swerve away from "Hooked On Phonics" for a bit, I
have an EL question.
        There are some shots of EL GP-7's (freight variety) on George's
site. Without looking back at them, I believe they are all in the 1226 -
1236 range (but not all of them).  
        Anyone out there know why some of the Geeps had their horns
mounted on the sides of the hoods and others on top of both hoods ?  It
seems that they were delivered this way.  I've seen shots of both ERIE
and DL&W units in their original paint and the horns on both roads varied
in their mountings even when they were fairly new.  Also, it looks like
this applied only to the freighters, not the passenger units.
