PC E-7As 4244 and 4233

Name	Type	Comments	Date

Tom Beckett	General	These units were rather spotty at the end of their careers, and were often out of service. There were three-4224 was the other, if I recall-that stayed on the roster til 1979. I went there on an admittedly sporadic basis in those days, and never saw one of them running. I also missed CR 4014(ex EL 825), which had come to Jersey after the Youngstown-Cleveland commuter train came off in 1977, and kept its EL paint til it was retired-I digress....The NY&LB was the last stand for E 7's in the US, putting them in good company, as the line also hosted the last runs of PRR steam in November 1957.	5/7/2018 5:08:55 AM

PC E-7As 4244 and 4233
CR-operated former PC E-7A's 4244 and 4233 rest behind the South Amboy engine facility in July, 1978. After many years of service, and use on the NY&LB replacing GG-1's at the end of the electrified line, these two E-7A's appear ready for retirement.
