I shot Erie/EL #6 "American Life" in Bellevue last August. It's under their
passenger car canopy next to the gift shop/office. Because of the location is
tough to get a good photo as it's up against a neighbor's yard and always in
shadow.

It's in decent but not pristine shape as small patches of rust are visible.

The first shot shows the lettering and the second is a shallow "wedgie" shot.
