As good as Alco was it was tragic that they had to leave the locomotive market in 1969. Another great shot, James. I also dig the "wood trim" station wagon in the background to the left.

It has been said that it was the 244 that put the final nail in the coffin for Alco. Even the 251 wasn't enough to save the company. It was a sad day when Alco announced their exit from the business, but they left behind a supply of spare parts to keep the existing units today running for years to come!
