And were they seen in L.A. much, if at all? Date: 01/10/13 11:54 Re: mFile: Cotton Belt F7A, RSD5, DS4-4-1000 Author: mwbridgwater bearease Wrote:

Very little. 21 of them were traded back in to Alco and rebuilt into RSD12 models in 1961. Probably most, if not all of these didn't make it in to gray and scarlet. The rest of the fleet finished their days in Texas. Mark Date: 01/10/13 13:59 Re: mFile: Cotton Belt F7A, RSD5, DS4-4-1000 Author: rehunn The SP versions were regulars on Tehachapi.
