Schuyler and List,

The question of applying the term "radio equipped" to the Erie
fleet came up in mid August. In researching the Freedom Train,
I came across this newspaper article (attached) from the May 6,
1949 issue of the Buffalo Courier Express.

It gives a good summary of the Erie's total system as far as
radio installations go. As of May 6th, 1949, 85% of the Erie
mainline was radio equipped.
