ALCO Safari Day 5, LA&L: Looking more like the rural midwest, than upstate New York, LA&L's road train comes past Howlett Farms, just outside one of the railroad's namesake cities, Avon. In just a few miles, the train will stop to service the large Barilla USA pasta facility with the 20 or so flour loads on the head end.
New York state has the largest number of ALCO diesel locomotives working in everyday service. Here are some of them. Soon I hope to chronicle all of them.
