Good diesel, good station
Title:  Good diesel, good station
Description:  One of the better looking stations on the Tier was the Erie station at Silver Springs, which was used by the MOW department, and kept in pretty good shape. The diesel, though in battered paint, still looks good, as any Alco did in 1991.
