(erielack) L&HR on EL mystery



Hi folks,

I have in my collection a photo of a trio of L&HR units (C420 22 with a big striped snowplow, RS3 3 in the solid-green scheme, and C420 29) leading freight NE-94 (so the slide mount says) westbound through Ridgewood, NJ in March of 1969.

So.... what the heck is L&HR power doing powering an EL freight, on EL rails? Anyone know the circumstances behind this? I'd love to know... Could they have been "borrowed" from Maybrook and made a turn to Croxton?
