Wow! I'm really surprised. Only one vote for Alco PA's! Unfortunatly, I've never seen a PA in the flesh, but in all the photos of 'em, be it in SP Daylight colors, Rio Grande Gold or in Samta Fe's Warbonnet, I've never seen an ugly PA. I have seen Alco FA'a and they look okay, but a little too stubby for that great nose. If a PA is long and lith like an E unit, I bet it's a sight to behold! <br />I grew up seeing a lot of SP SD9's in the SF Bay Area, so they have a special place in my heart. <br />As for EMDs over GEs, all I know is WP had a lot of trouble with their U30Bs and after the merger, UP didn't want anything to do with them. They kept most of the GP7s and 20s and 35s. There's only one WP U30B around...in a museum! <br />
