Roger Puta's Algoma Central Photos -- Part 1
Author: MartyBernard

Roger took these 6 in November 1978.  I'd sure like some help with information for captions.

1 through 4.  161 and 152, GMDD GP7s

5 and 6. Baggage Express Car and truck

Thanks,
Marty Bernard

Excellent photos. I particularly like the photos of the trucks. I have not seen too many close-up shots of the allied truck.

Nice series Marty, thanks for sharing.  I like the composition in that first shot.  That AC Baggage/Express car looks interesting to me.

The 201 is obviously a former WWII troop sleeper.

These trucks were outlawed for interchange service in the 1950's I believe. Derailment issues I suppose.

These photos appear to be the from the same group that was posted last fall (?) and may be around the Tabor area. There isn't enough detail in the background to tell for sure though.
