(erielack) Re: EL List Daily V3 #1920



Going by my Conrail Volume 1 roster in the back of the book, if the number
was never changed I have some now 8 year old slides of an ex-DL&W EMD
switcher (and it probably is, given the added-on side handrails) in eastern
Indiana on a remnant of Pennsy track.  I think the town is New Castle.  It's
not far from the only existing former Lehigh & New England S1 (which you can
see the L&NE lettering and stripe on it's hood through the current paint) -
both serve grain elevators, the L&NE unit on a remnant of the NYC to
Louisville I think, below Anderson.
