Re: (erielack) New NJT locomotives being built by Alstom at the former Erie/EL Hornell Shops!

OK, I will be unpopular . . .

I am glad that these locomotives will be different than what we've had all
along.  I like the California F59's too.  I think that F's and E's and PA's
were beautiful, but time marches on.

In 20 years, you'll be lamenting the loss of these good looking engines . .
