(erielack) Erie Lackawanna FT Paint Scheme

["LeRoy Price III" <leroy_price3_@_hotmail.com>]

The other day I was cruising the MTH O Gauge catalog and saw they were 
coming out
with what I thought was a Lackawanna FT ABA set but numbered in the 7000 
area.  I
sent a note to them mentioning that the numbers for Lackawanna FTs were in 
the
600's and not the 7000s.  Anyway, I got an email back saying they were 
trying to do
the Erie Lackawanna version but they were getting emails questioning the 
paint scheme.
You see they selected the regular Lackawanna paint scheme and not the black 
& gold
hence all of the questioning.

Now my question, I have seen at least one pic from 1962 were a FT AA set had 
the Lackawanna
paint scheme but lettered for Erie Lackawanna.  Was this the lone one or 
were there more?  I'm
thinking the black & gold was the normal paint scheme.
