Re: (erielack) Re: EL photos



I've seen photos of TM's turned into flatcars, but without a frame number 
there's no way to know if they were DL&W, CNJ, RDG, PRR or just who's units.

I want to say you want to look through early 1980's issues of Railfan or RMC 
for the shot I remember -


I have to wonder how hard it would be to fab a new hood for one of the 
N&W/NS slugs, if parts to one aren't still rotting on the ground in a 
scrapyard somewhere - wouldn't be correct, but could be painted any road you 
wanted.
