- OK, i Cheated and looked it up. New Haven RR Power, 1838-19??
- (it was a friend's book...).
-
- The first two clases of NH electrics on the thru route to Penn Station were the
- 300's and the 351's. Neither ran thru, the trains changed power "near
- Sunnyside" (probably near Harold.) After the catenary went up into Penn
- Station, NH power ran thru, being equipped with PRR ATS for that purpose.
- (Still puzzling about the rake off blocks, tho...)
