Fred Stuckmann General How about that? My favorite electric model. Thanks. 8/10/2013 8:45:20 PM
Gary Everhart General Mine too. They just don't get much better! Would have loved to see them in action! 8/11/2013 4:23:19 AM
Tim Darnell General They were classics! And around a long time. I can still hear them starting up, and the mono-toned blat sounding horn!Cab was very claustrophobic, though! 8/11/2013 10:21:51 AM
John Danielson General Wow! They must have had millions of miles racked up by the time they were finally retired. Only one I ever saw was in a museum. 8/11/2013 6:08:00 PM
Chris S General This was the electric to diesel loco change location at the time; south of here on the New York & Long Branch RR was diesel only until electrification in the 1980s 8/12/2013 10:32:29 PM
