Kusan Trains Chihuahua Al Pacifico freight

BILL…I have never seen a Chihuahua Pacifico. Is it an Alco FA1 ? Looks like the caboose matches. Nice pictures.

Jim, great shots of the AF. I am sure you enjoyed the most recent article in CTT about their cabooses.

Bill, I too had never seen one of those sets. Thanks for sharing.

Friday’s motive power was B&O, the Best & Only !

Passenger consist behind Lionel FT’s,

Next came an Atlas SD-35 with 18 MTH 4 bay hoppers,

Fun day with lots of visitors !

Some pics from last month’s trip to Harrisburg. My friend Tom is on the right.

AMTRAK heading west from trainshed.

NS GENSET 101. Actually looked longer than I expected.

Rockville Bridge as seen from the old fishing center — now a B&B for railfans.

A little over-under action.

It’s still nice to see a BIG BLUE unit these days.

You can see where the Susquehanna swelled up near the top of the abutments.

The Alco could be considered a rendition of a FA-1. I believe the Kusan Alco tooling eventually ended up with K-Line and was used for their early year Alco’s. The color combination used by Kusan for this Alco really standsout on the layout.
