Steve,

The photos with a single E8 that I copied were all west of Marion.

This  still comes as a bit of a surprise to me.  It only seems like every  
picture of an EL through train I have seen (note: I don't have the  
Through Passenger Service books) always had more than one E-8.
The one  on the cover of the Diamond was the first picture of a
single E-8 I have  seen.

I agree as far a as THROUGH trains were concerned.  I watched EL  trains in 
Warren, OH several times a week in from 1962 to the end and I  never recall 
seeing anything other than two (or sometimes more) E's, PA's or  mixed.  
Train 7 and 8 frequently had a PA and an E but 1,2,5, & 6  normally had two 
E8s.
