I found a large photo of one of the 750 series cabs coupled to EMD B-units on the NORTH EAST RAILS site, and there sure looks like there's a classification there. I'd have to guess that either you're right, or else the whole set would have been FG-60. I don't know! I have a shot of 750 in another brochure and a couple facts I'll put up shortly.

(I take it that these two units did a lot of their testing in 1959/1960 on the Erie, as the ABBA set 750 -- shown in the very nice photo on your blog's masthead -- did before them.)<br /><br />Were the units of the 750 set lettered FG-18 and FG-12 while on the Erie?Allen Hazenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05098575774774203097noreply@blogger.com
