An ALCO FA-1 in their collection. This unit is a treasure as it is a former New Haven unit, and the LAST FA1 produced by Alco. Plywood sheets are screwed to the sides to protect the body from corrosion and damage. |

Description: |
Great closeup color slide by an unknown photographer of the New York New Haven & Hartford FA-1 #0421 built by Alco in Septermber of 1947. The downhill slide of the New Haven is becoming evident when looking at the condition of this once beautiful loco. The photographer listed this as milepost 0293 - does anyone know if that is accurate for Maybrook, NY? |

Alco RS27 demonstrator no. 640-1 appears to be in the process of being rebuilt as a PRR C424, and two export models (likely WDMs for India) frame the foreground. Gerald H.

LNE FA-1 #702 - Lehigh & New England |
Description: |
This appears to be a photo taken during the transition between LNE control and its new owner L&N who repainted the unit with solid stripes rather than the 3 pinstripe nose. It still carries the LNE number 702 which will be changed to LN #333 later. No rr name appears on the side. No date, location or photographer was listed on the back of the photo so the date and location are "guess-timations". With Warren Evans help (see comment below), I have reset the date. With Craig Ealey's help, the location has been established as Pen Argyl, PA (see comment below). If anyone has more info on this unit, it would be appreciated. |

The Railroad of Firsts |
Description: |
1952 RR Publication full page advertisement caption included: Through a hundred years of progress the Erie has scored notable “firsts.” It was the first long-distance railroad. First to use telegraph in its operations. First to link the Atlantic seaboard with the Great Lakes. First to transport California fresh fruit to the New York market… and one of the first railroads to engage in major dieselization. Today 172 Alco-GE diesel-electrics – largest fleet of any builder – are helping this great railroad to win traffic back to the rails. |

Shore Line Branch Local |
Description: |
What this image lacks in sharpness it more than makes up for in its subject matter! Gulf Mobile & Ohio FA1 units 735 and 748 were pulling up to the Slidell, Louisiana depot on the "back track" with the southbound Shore Line Branch local. After exchanging paperwork with the operator, the train would back up to North Slidell and then continue on its journey from Bogalusa to Covington and back. Notice the footboards on the 735's pilot to make the unit more suitable for local service. |
