Loudmusic- Yes, check out Erie Mining/LTV Mining. They used ALCos and F units, not uncommon to see 4 or 5 F B units bracketed by F A units to move their heavy ore trains.

Probably is, but man is that a nice shot.

Here is my wrecked F7 being towed to the scrap yard. Actually, the only good photo I have of any of my F7's.

Great looking scrapper! This is the kind of real life scene I enjoy.

I've seen alot of variations of A-B's.....mostly A-B-B-B's. I'm working on getting some extra B units.

Here are some Stewart F units that I had just retrieved from my M-I-L's attic after 12 years in storage. They still run well but they need decoders. Also need to install some aftermarket grab irons and other details on them.
