I have never seen a photo of an E-5 with suburban cars in tow(old or newer).

Brian,

The E5s had the same 52:25 gear ratio and horsepower as the E7s, so they probably performed in a similar manner. they were great at speed, but not at starting.

How do E-5s factor into all of this? From what I know they were used in commuter service early on but not frequently. How long would they have been in suburban service? Did they run with the galley and power cars?
