Re: (erielack) Erie 1/10 Pint Whiskey Bottle



These were used on the diner-lounge cars.  They are similar to what you
would later see on the airlines.

There are two items that the Erie, DL&W and EL used on their dining cars and
lounge cars that ELDCPS has been approached about reproducing but we
wouldn't do: liquor bottles and cigars.
