125 P-S 4740 CUFT cars blt 1970 for EL
50 P-S 4750 CUFT cars blt 1972 for EL
note- left out cars smaller than 3000 CUFT,except the 2893 GV-2s.
left out all ACF Centerflows blt for EL
Note - have seen the Quantities of the P-S 4740 cars listed as 130
in other rosters.the 4740s may have had some diverted from other
lease's to fill the EL order quickly,cars were Leased from P-S,
or one of its other leasing companies.
the P-S 4750s were also from Pullman lease.
the 2893s are less than 3000 CUFT,but included since the Athearn decorated cars
do look nice,and the car bodies are large for the 50s.
