Prior to the elimination of such service, any idea as to what type of equipment would have been used:
* Clearfield to Jersey Shore (and possibly Williamsport).
* Clearfield southward towards Patton and Cherry Tree.

1918 ETT shows all sorts of service; 1951 ETT shows none. Supposedly service to Cherry Tree went belly up in 1931. Service to Patton?

I happen to back track through some references, although not inclusive. I would say equipment was coaches only, no equipment listings shown.

As you said, NYC passenger service ended by 1931 to Beech Creek lines and Pennsylvania Div lines except one train to Williamsport, daily except Sunday. Pennsylvania Division service from Lyons to Corning to Williamsport ended sometime between Feb and June 1935, train ended at Lawrenceville. By 1936, no passenger service listed. I guess it was very easy to show they had no traffic to the State PUC's.
