AT&SF DL-107 right
AT&SF had a grand total of one Alco DL-107 that they purchased in 1941. It made one round trip to Los Angeles on the Chief, stalling over Raton Pass. After that, it was assigned to the flats of Texas and Kansas. Santa Fe kept playing with this unit over the years, making many changes and modifications, but they never ordered another DL-10x.
I chose the later version of #50 to model with its double headlight, Farr-Aire grills and 'cleaned up' roofline. It's similar to my GM&O and Milwaukee DLs, but with classic warbonnet paint.
