I've been watching the webcam @ Alamosa and it sure looks to me like the new operator @ Alamosa is using F40PH's. Filthy, Dirty, Ugly ones, but F40's none the less. Since the line has not had 3-axle trucks over it in something like 45-50 years I doubt these could be any other cowl type units. Does anybody have better shots than those shown @ http//207.225.26.243 ?
They are F40PHs from the Canadian-American Railroad. They were purchased for a new passenger run that runs from Alamosa to La Veta pass, maybe further. The Cumbres & Toltec Shop website has pictures of them under the second week of March. Link: http://cumbrestoltecshops.com/ Cheers, Ben
