Sorry to see BCR ALCo's going away. At least these were wreck damaged.... So salvaged for a good cause.

I sure miss their two toned green days...... What a fabulous setting for a railroad.

:D

Do you know the condition of that prime mover? Looks like it was dropped straight in. So nothing done to it?

I liked her better when she looked this way before but this is Doyle's baby now and he has the right to paint her just the way he wants too.

And not to forget she was originally SF#62L

I wonder what the RR historical guys in Canada may have been lucky enough to preserve? Memory says they have a PGE ALCo. But any BCR? Can't think of the name for their group. Western something... Argh! Believe they were at Squamish.
