Still some Alcos
Title:  Still some Alcos
Description:  The Alco fleet did not have a long tenure on CR, as they almost immediately set out to make their roster all EMD or GE, once they got a handle on what they had and sorted out the worst power. Six axle Alcos tended to stay on the Cleveland ore trains, with the four axle power at various points around the system, a lot of times not too far from home. This is an example, an ex PRR unit working at Kearny.
