was a NYC unit?"

No, it is a C425 and the NYC never owned a C425.

     "Would 5067 have been the number of a NYC unit.  Any help in this
matter would be appreciated.  The builders plates are gone and there are
no markings on the unit which would tell me any thing other than what I
have above."

    The unit you describe is former PC 2431, PRR 2431.  It was re# to CR
5067, shipped to GE at Hornell, NY in 1981, languished until 1988 at
Hornell, ownership of plant changed from GE to MK, purchased by New
York & Lake Erie 08/88 as parts supply.
