Love those Alcos!
Title:  Love those Alcos!
Description:  Ah I love the sight of Alcos! Here two of the MNNR's big boys repose at the roundhouse making for a great "present" for my 33rd birthday train shoot. The 313's paint seems fresher than the 314's; was she recently repainted? Note the MOW vehicle in the right foreground.
