Here is some help. My diagram book indicates that 56000-56811 came from 3 DL&W groups and 5 ERIE groups.
I have photos of three of these cars. I can read build dates on two of the cars.

EL 56632 Built 8-52 appears to be riveted ten panel car. Based on Blt Date it is from ERIE 86000-86449
EL 56613 Built 4-49 appears to be welded twelve panel car. Based on Blt. Date it is from ERIE 90511-91199
EL 56748 appears to be a welded twelve panel car, cannot read build date.
Attached are my photos of these three cars
I haven't looked at model options.Ben Bartlett

List...

Wondering if anyone has any info on the EL 56000 series boxcars, which apparently were rebuilt from riveted 6-ft door cars from somewhere. I can't find anything about them in the color guide and my equipment diagram book (incomplete) also does not show this series.
