    What's the EL execs up to now, Jerry? Are they looking at more connecting business, and wanted to inspect the line before signing on the dotted line?

    Hey,
    The EL units with the 2 headlights were originally DL&W. The light on the door was the headlight & the top one was the MARS light. The Erie units had single HL's.
    After the arrivial of the E-8's,if you & Dad want to come up,let me know.

    Mike are you a bigger DLW fan or Erie? My dad has 1 EL GP35 and 3 PAs. He has ABBA FT set, 3 Trainmasters, 2 H-16-44s, and a 2-8-0 switcher in DL&W, all with DCC.

    The FTs are speed matched to each other along with the trainmasters. either set pulls a ton.

    Jerry, Pinole needs more steam!
