Here's John Boehner's picture...

- Paul





Walt and listers,

That was a great trip with NKP 759 on Memorial Day weekend, May 30 and
31,
1970. Of course this was sponsored by the High Iron Company.

This was the first train to do the EL "circle" since the farewell trip
with
the PA's in June of 1968.

Both days on the EL were great, and I have great memories and shot many
slides.

I have sent Paul a shot to be posted of 759 turning eastward onto the
Delaware Bridge, taken from the third car in the train. This one was
from the
759's farewell trip, August 8, 1971. Speed restriction on the curve just
west
of the bridge was 55, then 70 for passenger trains across the cutoff!
Before
you knew it, we were through Port Morris, and stopped at Dover!

What EL was all about!
