Neat, not to many photos of these locos around, check out the guys looking at the shinny red new MGB in the background

Great unit. Great scheme. Great image.

One of my favorite engines. The 23A was retired in March 1968.

The MGB the Caddy and the 23A make this a favorite...one of my first trips Firing on these locos was the curious bench seat that the Fireman and Brakeman had to share...we called them "love seats." Great photo...Thanks....Tom.

Thanks for the info Jon...much appreciated! I shot this photo on Kodachrome II film when I was only 15. I'll update my slide database with the retirement info.

Fabulous shot. I have never seen this type of locomotive until this shot. Thanks for posting.

Wow! Never saw a picture of one of these. Did they run them in a A B A set? Really a cool locomotive. I thought it was a Baldwin at first glance.

Awesome, and look at the track condition on that line!
