Erie Lackawanna lives
Title:  Erie Lackawanna lives
Description:  I have occasionally mentioned that in the early days of Conrail, and even in the NJ Transit era, it was possible to get the flavor of the predecessor roads while on their lines. Case in point: Hoboken. Here we see a train bound for the Main Line to Suffern, behind power and cars that could, except for the diamond herald on the power(many of the cars still carried them) be an EL train. In the background is a DLW MU car, still lettered EL, and, lo and behold, and ex Erie Stilwell, albeit painted CR blue and probably an office, or in MOW service, a task it most likely ended its EL career doing. Hoboken, and to some extent the entire ex EL operation, was a time machine.
