New York Central ALCO FA-1 # 1020 & # 1027 diesel electric locomotives are seen at the Mott Haven Yard in New York City, late 1950's. This is very interesting to see these lightening stripped freight service diesel locomotives in the third rail territory, where normally only DC motors roam. In the distant background you may observe an old NYC "S" motor directly behind the diesel locomotives. Then another old NYC "S" motor is seen behind the diesel locomotive on the right side of the photo.

 

The name of the photographer that captured this image on film is unknown. This is a modified, enhanced and cropped photo scan that is from an image that was on the Internet.
