The fools did scrap the S-6 #101, and the Baldwin-Alco "HYBRID" #51 (it was not an S-6 truly, Baldwin VO - frame, trucks, cab) To clarify, the Hybrid was actually re-built by ALCOS' shops in Schenectady N.Y., in fact it is pictured in several publications demonstrating ALCOS abilities at re-powering platforms (mainly switchers) and installing their reliable, very efficient 251B series 6 cylinder. I owned and operated those 2 units for 11 years, less the RS3m #99. Ed

What do they just run these diesels around for fun? Looks like a big model train set.
