Nostalgia & History > Old Orange Alcos at Rest in 1977Date: 05/15/19 04:22 Old Orange Alcos at Rest in 1977 Author: Korigaoka1811 The F7s were in town (Stockton) but I didn't overlook these guys. Picture one led by an S2 and picture two, an S4.

Not knowing my WP history, were the WP Alco switchers simply sold to their ST&E neighbors? |
