New power |
Description: |
New power for the A&M, first non Alco units owned by the railroad, are several SD70ACes. Three were at Springdale on Sep 21, one of which was visible from the street. Heres A&M 71 in the best view available. Several Alcos were parked nearby, including 66, which has had its air filter removed. I gotta admit, the new scheme looks good. |

Rare Alcos |
Description: |
RS 1s were once failrly common, but at this point in history there are very few remaining. So it was a treat to find #20 sitting outside the shop. The T 6 was a modle that sold very few units, mostly to SP, PRR and N&W. Catching these two together was a trear. |
