RE: (erielack) F5s or are they....
I pulled the "F5" identification from the George Elwood sight. I did realize
that "F5" is a railfan term for a phase of the F3, but I guess it's just
better to call them what they really are - F3s. Thanks for the
clarification.

While as railfans you may call them F5s or F3 Phase 4 EMC later EMD did not
even refer to Phases they were Just F3s... but the Major Point is that
the DL&W didnt ever have what you would call F5s. they were F3 Phase1 early
(801a-802c) 8411-8424 I believe, and the rest were PHase 2 late (low fans
and chickenwire grills between portholes on A units. 803a805c or 8431-8454
under EL these are just the Dual service F3s im not going into EX
Lackawanna Freight F3s other than to say they were also Phase1-2 and No F5s
those were ERIE owned and Freight only
