I remember reading ( I think it was in Trains) that when they de-electrified the ST, they calculated it so that the price for the wire would just barely pay for dieselization. So some ST employees are removing the wire, and a guy in a truck pulls up and tells them that Patrick B McGuinnis promised him the wire in exchange for a "favor". Well they told the guy to ! off, and they found out later he was F. Nelson Blount! (For those who dont know, he was the founder of Steamtown). Doing this from memory, so if there are any inaccuracies I apologize.
