I've got a couple of questions regarding Alco. First: why were none of C&NW's high-nosed ex N&W C628s preserved? Was C&NW more interested in getting as much money as possible for scrapping or trading in the locomotives? <br />Second: After the Alco-GE partnership dissolved in the 1950s, why didn't Alco simply make its own version of GE's traction motors, and electrical equipment, like EMD did? <br />Thanks for the opportunity to ask a couple of questions that have been nagging me for awhile. <br />Cris [8D]
