Old Reliable Alco's
When the Walden's Ridge Railroad acquired FA2 #605, they saved a treasure. This age old Alco began it's life on the L&N as #310 in June of 1956 and served the system wholeheartedly until it changed hands to the Long Island Railroad and wore several other paint schemes under the new ownership. The scheme it now rusts in was painted in the early 90's, yet nothing will ever beat the glorious black and cream of the L&N. One can only hope it may one day carry the blessed scheme again, though let us be thankful that this thing still exists.
