Hey Trains21, I don’t know if you know this but if you are looking to railfan some new Alcos there is a RS3M, c420, and a RS11 in Northampton PA.

The D&L white caps and other assorted liveries, the legendary ALCOs. 🤠👍

[@wesw9586]

Love seeing these engines! Bless the D&L

[@iusetano]

The sweet of ALCO/MLW. We loved it. Thank you AC.

[@ericsundell9978]

As big of an EMD guy as I am, these Alco's are just neat. So cool that there still operating in 2024 outside of a museum. I would love to make it out and see this RR in action someday.

Having grown up in Schenectady, ALCO locomotives were a part of my 1950s-1960s life at the northern end of Erie Boulevard. The massive GE plant was at the other end. I turned down an ALCO job (thankfully) and went to work and retired 42 years later from GE. What those huge engine shop grounds ended up as is not nice. Currently there is an office building replacing an interim hokey strip mall, an empty lot but was a hotel for a few years and *gasp* a large gambling casino and marina. I've only knowingly traveled on one train with a steam locomotive - Durango and Silverton narrow gauge sightseeing train in Colorado - but never a diesel.

Great video, always a treat to see older freightcars that haven’t been repainted (the Southern boxcar in the one train). Just one suggestion, if you can add the locations where you filmed the trains. I know where some were filmed (Steamtown and the new shops), but the others are unknown. Great to see something other than EMDs and GEs. Thanks

What would a caboose like the one at 31:26 be used for nowadays?

[@Trains21]

Probably a shoving platform

[@matthewarentzen7465]

THIS!!

[@trapdriver7006]

Excellent video which I enjoyed watching 👍😀😀😀🚂🇬🇧

[@jeffreyhunt1727]

Alcos are still used in actual revenue service??

[@Trains21]

Yes/

[@tooling_engineer]

Why was a burning 🔥 flare in the road crossing at the 1230 mark?

[@Trains21]

As a warning to motorists.

[@gregginter5867]

I’d be wary of a derailment w/all of the equipment rockin n rollin!

[@gregginter5867]

What is to the right of the CF trailer? Looks like a dumping area…always junky in all of your videos!
