Thanks so much, it's a pleasure to share them. I had seen my last Alcos, a pair of RS11's, on Conrail a month prior to this at Bethlehem, PA, not knowing they would all be gone a few months later in the great Conrail Thanksgiving, 1979 Alco purge. I was very thankful to find so many operating Alcos on the D&H in this, my only visit to Colonie shops.
Absolutely delightful album, Alan. Thanks for sharing these! They are unique!
Wow, great shot of a once mighty railroad and Alcos to boot!
Great close up of both Alco's
NICE SHOT
