Re: (erielack) EL and Major Interchange Partners and SF-100

When I was hanging out at Shenango tower on the Mahoning 2nd, those trains
when running were referred to by the dispatcher and operators as Santa Fe
100, Burlington 100, Rock Island 100 and Milwaukee 100. I do not recall if
they were noted as such on the train sheet, though all officially went down
as Extra [lead unit number].
