Erie 833 is owned by short line New York & Greenwood Lake and is fully restored to it's Erie 2 tone green livery. It normally resides at the former Erie engine terminal site in Port Jervis, NY. It is operable and is used on occassion by the NY & GL for business trains and private excursions. Port Jervis was a major railroad town for the Erie, home to roundhouse, freight and passenger yards and the Delaware Division Headquarters. Although the Erie died in 1960 and the Port Jervis properties removed from service in the 1980's by Conrail, one can still go up there by train (NJ Transit) and see an original Erie E-8 sitting on a radial track by it's former turntable as 2010 begins.
Mr. Levin keeps his 2 in the Philadelphia area, and owns and operates them under the name of Juniata Terminal Railroad. See, for instance "Viewing Album: Juniata Terminal" by Bob Vogel at - http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/archiveThumbs.aspx?id=13450

What became of the dark green E's that Conrail had to power it's executive trains?
