Canadian MLW/ALCO's in use
Posted by Trainmaster.Curt on Sunday, January 21, 2007 2:47 PM

I know of one MLW/ALCO/BBD locomotive in use in Manitoba on the SMNR, i think it's a HR412, though i know they had a M420W in use before, and the OSR in Ontario is pretty much all ALCO powered, hope i can get out there and take some photo and video of those  railways. Can other people let me know what shortlines and excursion railways still use them, and include links and photos.
