Re: (erielack) CNW F's
Four of the ex CNW F7s were acquired by the United RR Historical Society.
Two were borrowed by Metro-North, then repainted into Lehigh Valley livery.
These two are now on the Cape May Seashore Lines in Tuckahaoe, NJ. The third
F7 has been repainted into Reading RR and is now in the Boonton storage
yard. I believe that the fourth unit resides on the BR&W System.
