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

Paul B. and Paul S. (are there too many Paul's on this list?),

On my Marion Trainsheets the only interchange partner 100 showing is SF100.
The trainsheets are from 1972.  As far as the Passing Report (1967), there
is nothing on there showing any run thru power or freights of the [insert
Chicago area road]100 variety.  In my Chicago Blue Book (1973) the
eastbounds are all broken out with cutoff times from the connecting roads
and how those interchanges are effected.  From there it lists all eastbound
movements out of Chicago and as of 1973 there was no MILW100 or RI100 or
SF100 or any other train of that sort.  For example:

RI delivered to 51st street with a cutoff of 2:00 am; P/B rubbered to 51st
Street; if any NY terminal P/B traffic, out in 2/NY100 same day; Boston,
B&M, D&H and S&U P/B traffic out in PB100 same day;  other Boston, B&M, D&H
and S&U traffic out in TC100 same day; PCH and NY Terminal out in NE74 same
day; Brier Hill, Buffalo and Meadville traffic out in MF74 same day; balance
of traffic out in 78 for further classification in Marion.  Based on the
make up of MF74, 78's make up most likely consisted of traffic destined for
points in Ohio that were west of Youngstown - Akron, Cleveland, Mansfield,
Harding, Ashland, Wadsworth, Barberton, Dayton and so on - and was
classified into the appropriate train originating in Marion for those points
from there.

There is not a single instance of any of the 100's of the MILW, SF, RI and
so on listed.  The above description is pretty standard for all the Chicago
area roads in the Blue Book.  The reverse is broken out quite detailed with
the movements from Marion to the connecting roads in Chicago with BN99,
SFE97, CEI 97, CNW97, MILW97, ICG97, RI99, CO97.  These all appear on the
Marion Trainsheets as westbounds.

Going back to the Trainsheets - the BN power, as a standard, showed up
eastbound on NE74 but on one occasion was eastbound on SF100 and a plastic
extra.  There was no MILW, RI or ATSF power evident for the months worth of
sheets I have.  BN power returned west on NE97, NY99, HF97 and in one
instance on a lite w/cab movement.

  Steve,

  I know you're busy with the Passing Report, but can you shed some light on
this with what you've come across on the PR and the Marion trainsheets? I
recall the latter showed BN power coming east exclusively on NE-74. IIRC,
the PR is 1968 vintage so may predate the runthrus.

  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].
