...... at least that's the rule of thumb on our railroads.

'Zephyr24069' and I got into a little off subject discussion on the Esoteric forum and he enlightened me that his Dad worked for Alco (American Locomotive Company) back in the day. So I thought I'd post up a current video of some of our vintage Alco's performing their daily ritual in hauling freight on our Delaware Lackawanna railroad out of Scranton, Pa. The white and gray paint scheme has become our corporate colors, these units are fresh out of the shop this year in new paint.

We have a rooster of 36 Alco's , the newest of which was built at the very end of their existence before morphing into GE.
