Ok, it was added, there fore Preston's book is correct.  Like I said,  we 
will all be using Dave Sweetlands books for years to come.   Thanks  for the 
update.

Hi  Bob,

Looking for the photo I mentioned earlier, I came across a photo  caption in 
Robert Liljestrand and David Sweetland's book EL Diesel  Locomotives, Volume 1 
Switchers, page 37, which states that MU capability was  added to 481 to 
ensure two MU-capable units were always available.

And  I need to correct my previous post....according to the same photo 
caption, the  units were purchased for a road freight assignment on the Bloomsburg  
Branch.  However, I recall another photo, which I can't find right now,  which 
did say the units were used in EL years for transfer to/from  Taylor.  I'll 
keep looking for that one.
