The Windsor & Hantsport Railway (Nova Scotia, Canada)has increased their daily gypsum runs with the summer months. Two or three daily 22 car trains pulled by the railways usual triple head end of Alco/MLW RS-23's. Usually #8036, 8038 and 8042.

Are these the units you emailed me pics of a while back. If so the computer virus I had got them. [:(] You are welcome to resent them. And of course any other Alco pics you might have. [:)]

I am always looking for good Alco pics. No such thing as a bad Alco. [:)]

Hey Jim,

Sorry to hear about the virus, the loss of any Alco pic is a tragic thing indeed. I will resend the pics Monday.
