ANOTHER OLD FRIEND OF MINE..TO VISIT IN ROCHESTER, NY!
The Western New York & Pennsylvania Railroad plans to place another Alco diesel locomotive into service by the end of the month.
Trains magazine reported that former Tioga Central No. 406, an Alco RS34M, will begin serving the WNY&P, which is known for its Alco motive power fleet.
No. 406 has been renovated, including receiving LED lighting, a camera, alerter system, turbo replacement, new federally-mandated window glazing, and new paint, among other improvements. It has a 12-cylinder Alco 251 prime mover.
