Scott, G-A, and other interested LVer's.....
Most if not all these engines served the New York Harbor terminal area.....
Brill-GE #125 was the first verified internal combustion locomotive used to replace steam at the E. 149th Street Bronx Terminal, and Mack #111 at the W. 27th Street Manhattan Terminal.
Chuck Youngkurth's "Steam Era Of The Lehigh Valley" is also a good photo source of these pioneer engines.
The roster below is taken from my upcoming article on the history of the E. 149th St Bronx Terminal in the RMIG Transfer, issue #43, to be published fall of 2005 - sorry for the shameless plug!
