wow i was born in 1992 so i didnt get to see these awesome alcos and EMDs but love the video, i love looking back on yoututbe and i think how awesome would it be to see these power houses in action
@Barricade360 The switcher was not an ALCO. It was either an EMD SW7 or SW9. (I can't make out the road number in the video.) Either way it would have had an EMD 567 V-12 engine producing 1200 Horsepower.
There are no ALCOs in these shots at East Deerfield. They are all EMD or GE units.
Back before everyone owned a video camera. Brings back memories of early ralfanning on the "bridge" at E.Deerfield when you could still see B&M blue.Thank you!
I never got to see that Maine Central switcher in E. Deerfield. I remember the weathered B&M one in the maroon and gold paint.
