Pittsburgh & Lake Erie (Cigar Band) - Road #: 3033 - 70 Ton 3-Bay Offset Side Hopper
Pittsburgh & Lake Erie was slow to adopt parent New York Central’s cigar band logo but a version of it began to appear on these hoppers circa 1962. Called the Little Giant, P&LE was just 233 miles long but was so busy they required a fleet of 25,000 freight cars to keep their customers supplied. That’s an astonishing 107 cars for every mile of mainline!
