JR attached a very interesting document from George Elwood's excellent
website. An Erie-generated 15 page document showing diesel locomotives in
service or on order as of September 15, 1950.

I'm attaching a screen cap I made of the title page and page 5 which refers
to 807 specifically. That when delivered in April 1951, 807 will be
assigned to the Marion Division for "Thru Freight and Fruit Specials." It
seems pretty rare to find something so definitive. At the time this summary
was written, in September 1950, Erie still had over 200 steam locomotives
in service.
