Yes they did, in fact Fairbanks Morse (yes maker of the Trainmaster and current owner of the ALCo 251 engine design) still produces ALCo 251 engines for stationary and marine applications. In fact many Navy vessels and river tugs are powered with the 251. Many hospitals and power plants use a 251 engine as stand by power, see more about that here: http://www.railroad.net/forums/messages.asp?TopicID=15780 . To learn more about current ALCo 251 production go here: http://www.fairbanksmorse.com/engines/commercial/alco/alco.htm <br /> The ALCo name lives on!!! [:D][;)]
