--------------------

Paul,

Here's a news article (don't know which paper) from August 1,
1968...full of mistakes ("Erie Sells Last Steam Loco"; "only operational
EL steam engine", etc)

Basically it's an article of when 565 arrived at Whippany / MCC after
John Maris purchased it from BR&W. Attached is a B&W photo that goes
along with the article. In the shot is MCC Engineer Andy Barbera
(retired from EL) with the 565 and No. 385 in the background.

The smaller color image shows 565 on the station track at Whippany,
along with John Maris' ex-CN private car (built in 1894), which he
repainted wine red and renamed as "Eagles Mere"

If for some reason, you can not read the text, let me know and I'll type
it out for you.

Enjoy !
Steve
