Posted by cloakedghost on December 31, 2006  I've never seen a real-life photo of the ALCO demo units before. Nice catch. Posted by milepost56 on December 31, 2006  Thanks for pulling this one out of the vault John. I have always loved your unique style of photography. Posted by David Garon on December 31, 2006  I'll echo the first comment by saying thanks for posting such a rare image. Incidentally, the Alco-GE partnership was dissolved in 1953, not 1956.

By 1956, GE decided to enter the loco market. Posted by Marty Bernard on December 31, 2008  Yes, thanks John for posting these gems.
