| One way some smaller roads made money was by leasing piggyback trailers. Most of you have, Im sure, seen Vermont Railway vans at some point-they had a good sized fleet at one point. One of the more unusual fleets was Erie Western, which ran a portion of the Erie main across Indiana for a few years in the late 70s after EL quit. Interesting that they, of all roads, should have a fleet of trailers. Heres one at Alexandria VA in 1984 |
