Erie-Lackawanna E8A 810, Griffith, IN
Once a queen, EL 810 had been reduced to transfer service at the end of Erie-Lackawanna's life. The beautiful E8 started out life as EMDX 810, one of EMD's demonstrators. The DL&W bought her to power its passenger trains. But nothing lasts forever, especially the good stuff, or so it seems. Here she is back in August of 1975 at Griffith, IN, returning home after delivering a transfer to the EJ&E.
