Regards, Jim Evans Date: 03/20/17 16:13 Re: BC RAIL 1990 Author: ted1897 The ALCO doing the switching, Canadian built? Comparable to what EMD GP locomotive?
The BCR Red, White, Blue road units - also ALCO? When were they built? Still in service? Just curious... Ted Date: 03/21/17 03:17 Re: BC RAIL 1990 Author: tsokolan The 607 is an 1800 HP Montreal Locomotive Works built RS-18 (based on the designs of the ALco RS-11)
The S407 (blue slug) paired with the 607 is a slug (no prime mover) and was built from a cut down RS-3 The red, white and blue units in the background are General Electric built C40-8M's -Trevor Date: 03/21/17 08:13 Re: BC RAIL 1990 Author: ted1897 Very interesting, Trevor. Thank you for the information - I figured that
someone on TO would know. Ted |
