Re: (erielack) Is the 1959 date of this photo accurate?

I agree with Joshua. There are pictures in various publications and  websites 
(I believe one of the Pennisi books contains one) that show former Erie  E8s 
wearing Erie 2-tone green but with the EL logo and "ERIE LACKAWANNA" on the  
flanks located aft of the entry door. 
 
This is also how Dan Cupper asserted in his 1984 Trains article about EL  
833/CR 4022 ("The Executive E"?) that the 4022 has worn 6 paint schemes, with  
the 2-tone green EL scheme being the second and GMY the third.
 
Hope this helps,
 
Phil

I didn't  think so.  What is the repaint history of the ex Erie and the  ex
DL&W Erie units anywho?  Weren't they re marked Erie  Lackawanna?  Obviously
the engine in the photo is an ex Erie unit  painted GMY, when would they have
first painted ex Erie units  GMY?

Best,

Joshua
