I assume that the others were set up this way.Īfter the EL merger, they consolidated divisions, and made 'long pools' that eliminated many of the crew change points. New York Division - Port Jervis to Jersey City (87 mi)įor the Allegany and Meadville Divisions, the crews were based at the Eastern end, and laid over at the Western end of the division. Susquehanna Division - Hornell to Susquehanna (139 mi)ĭelaware Division - Susquehanna to Port Jervis (108 mi) Meadville Division - Meadville to Salamanca (102 mi)Īllegany Division - Salamanca to Hornell (86 mi) Mahoning Division - Kent to Meadville (90 mi)

Marion Division, 1st Sub - Huntington to Marion (127 mi) Marion Division, 2nd Sub - Chicago to Huntington (142 mi) I think 100 miles was considered a standard 'day's work' for a long time. However, the Erie RR changed crews approximately every 100 miles for many years.

I believe that your list would be about right for the Erie Lackawanna, starting in the early 60s.
