"Duh" on my part, I always forget that! :(

OK, so there never was any interchange to RDG via LV at P'burg?

This is useful, thanks! Here's a question I've always wondered: Is there
a list of "standard routings" for the EL? Let's say a car has to get
from NJ to Decatur, IL - what was the most commonly used route? EL-N&W
(at Buffalo)?  Or EL-N&W (at Huntington)?  This is another useful thing
for modelers to put on car cards to let their crews know how to move the
cars.

Stranger things have happened... ;)
