They almost look foreign. If you didn't know better, you'd have a hard time guessing what country those photos were taken in.

From their last order for C420's. These were the only ones that rode the Alco Hi Ad trucks.
Thanks for sharing.

I remember seeing these being delivered from Alco in the MTA blue and yellow. They came down Penn Central's West Shore line to Weehawken, NJ and were carfloated over to the LIRR.

Some of the were routed over the D and H/LV and were floated over.
