PC: PC ALCO Cab units-

["Garrett Rea" <glrea@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Gents:

Did someone say ALCO???   Well all righty then,  'ere are a few questions
that have stumped me-

1, When did the last of the NH PAs go to the happy enginehouse in the sky??
(Ditto PRR/NYC)

2, Did any ALCO FBs make it into PC paint?  I have seen NYC painted ones in
PC trains. (numbers)

3, What railroads gave PC FAs, and what got painted for PC, and numbers?

4, When did regular use of FAs discontinue w/PC?

5, Where were they run?  NYC used them in Ohio and  I've seen photos of them
MUed in freights in PA (with PRR 630 Century) as well.  RNE had a photo of
an ex-NH unit in PC paint taken in Boston on the cover one time.

6, PRR contribute any?

Thanks-

Garrett
Enjoying the day off-
