Bryan Smith General These are the originals. They were the first two units on the Chattahoochee Industrial Railroad and served faithfully for nearly 30 years. The CIRR shops were masters at all things ALCO and kept them in tip top shape. You just about couldn't make them stall....they would get down to walking speed then dig in and keep pulling, especially in pairs. And the sound they made was amazing. Great Photo. 1/9/2012 4:09:25 PM
