    Hi to all.
    Is there any fans here on this list that have a passion for the ALCOs of the GVT from Nth. East Pa. & Upstate NY.
    My passion is mainly for the days of LV; CNJ;RDG, etc. but I love this modern GVT system.
    A lovely railroad operating some very interesting BIG ALCOs.
    Thanks in advance.

    Peter-

    Welcome aboard!

    Am not familiar with the GVT. Are they part of the Genesee & Wyoming group of companies?

    :D

    Hi Boxcab50.
    The GVT is not part of the Genesee & Wyoming group. I believe that its headquarters are in Batavia NY.
    It is the Parent RR Co. of
    Delaware-Lackawanna,( a short line in Nth.East Pa.); Mohawk Adirondack & Northern, Depew Lancaster & Western, & Falls Road Railroad,(all short lines in upstate NY.).
    All Alco locos.
    I just found this link to a roster page with photos of the locos.

    www.newyorkrailroads.com/gvt/roster/

    Hope you can access this link ok.
    Many Thanks for your interest.

    Link works fine. Will do some further exploring this evening. I like seeing all those existing ALCo engines!
