Viewing Album:  Historic B&W Erie-Lackawanna Diesel Shots
 
By:Jeff Wilson
Dates:1/1/1960 - 12/31/1975
Album Info:A friend gave me these plus a whole bunch more from her grandfather's collection. He recently passed away. I thought they needed to be shared here on RRPA. I do not know who the photographer was, but I do know that they were all taken in and around Morris County, NJ from the period 1960-1975. All the train information I provided was written on the back of the pictures by the photographer(s). Enjoy!!
