As much as I hate to say it, if I were around in '73 I would've taken ALCOs and (now classic) EMDs and GEs for granted. For the time it was what the ES40/ES44s and even the EMD SD70s (all varieties) are today. Just common stuff...
I could see it now. Out railfanning in that era "oh..it's just an ALCO darn it!"
