One thing I forgot to mention about the December 31 trip back in 1965. I didn't realize that EL and DL&W switched ends on LACKAWANNA because one end rode higher reducing the amount of splash on the passengers. I found that out about 20 years ago when I read Ray Baxter's book. My two friends and I were in the midst of turning the boat on that evening 40 years ago.
