| Erie Mining Co. No. 4211 preserved at the Lake Superior Railroad Museum at Duluth, MN on 24 Jun. '16. The road number is EMC 4211, EMCO 4211, or ERIE 4211, depending on which reporting mark reference on the internet you choose to believe. Built by EMD in May '56 and purchased by Erie Mining Co., it originally wore their blue and silver paint scheme and was numbered 101. It was repainted in its current scheme ca. '63 and renumbered to its current number ca. '70. It was donated to the Lake Superior Railroad Museum in Apr. '02 by the LTV Mining Co. or LTV Steel Co., successor of Erie Mining Co. Some sites also list it as LTV 4211 or LTVX 4211. I've found LTVX on some reporting mark lists, but not LTV. |
