Thanks Bob, you sure had interesting consists west of Meadville.

Those high fan F3s weren't long for this world in 1972. I never saw one on the east end myself, started raifanning in 1972.

Great picture - not only is the power set interesting but so is the trailing Erie flat with what looks to be a high & wide load. Thanks for posting.

Fantastic photo Bob. I sure wish I could go back and see EL, not counting NS 1074 or 1700. Just the variety of trains and power. Also lots of tracks there compared to today.
