Check this link for specific information on AOk.

Saw two of their locomotives in Shawnee at noon today, beautiful red, with yellow highlights. They are dash-7s. If they are still around next time, I'll get some photos. They were at a station that appeared to be some sort of small office/facility for AOk.
I took some pictures of AOk today, 10/23/03. The engines are B23-7's. They have two in Shawnee and 2 in OKC. I don't know what else, if any, they have. I have posted photos of the Shawnee pair on our family website, photos page #2.

Train Boy,
As emdgp92 noted in a posting on the Aliquipa, there are some photos of AOK rolling stock at the Fallen Flags site. The URL is: <http://www.rr-fallenflags.org/misc-a/misc-a.html> Hope this helps.

From what I know is that the AOK has black locos with a red logo. Most AOK locos are grey with green trim and Arkansas and Oklahoma writin on the side. Most of AOK locos are hand-me-downs and theres no tell what they coud be.
Hope you find what you are looking for.
