Anybody remember this D&H PA operation... And the D&H PA's also ran on the EL in commuter service to Hoboken, NJ in early 1970's...and I actually saw this 1 passenger train at West End tower, Jersey City, NJ as I passed it while riding an ex-DL&W MU train west!

From Railfan & Railroad magazine... The Albany–Montreal route was not included in the initial Amtrak system, and so the Laurentian and Montreal Limited made their last runs in April 1971, and the PAs were stored. By this time, D&H and Erie Lackawanna were under common ownership of Dereco, a Norfolk & Western holding company. A set of PAs was sent to EL in Hoboken to test out in commuter service, but the set made only one trip before being returned to Colonie.
