ALCO 5 |
| Description: |
Any time I'm in North Creek I have to check in with my old friend ALCO #5. We first met in the summer of 1993 in front of the Thendara, NY train station on the Adirondack Centennial Railroad. It was my first real trian ride and helped shape the rest of my life. At least she is still around and opperational, even if she doesn't fit into the operations on the SNC. |

The "new" BL2 is harkening back to D&H days with it's best "Grey Ghost" impression. Of course the real Grey Ghost was a U23B. |

Long hood forward, in the shadows and covered in snow. Had to get a pic anyway. Supposedly she is nearly opperational. |

My "chase" south consisted of waiting for the pair to cross the Hadley Bridge. I contemplated other stops but I had gotten well ahead of the train and the low sun was dropping behind the hills shadowing most of the usual locations. |

One more shot as this lashup doesn't happen every day, and is likely to never happen again. |
