Great catch. Quite the humbling assignment; Canada’s anticipated hope for high speed rail coupled to updated 1940′s Alco Schenectady technology. During their era I recall being disappointed by LRC powered train – nothing could compare to the legendary FPA4! Nevertheless, I now miss the low profile speedster. Really glad examples of both, including lots of FP’s, were preserved.
