Ivan,
I used to work out at EMD and a few friends still do. I was amazed at the
number of "rail fans" (fanatics) around. I still stop and wonder at the
brute size and strength of those locomotives and often still try and
identify the different offerings from the 2 main competing diesel-electric
manufacturers. Thanks for taking me down memory lane!

"And then there was "Christine," an Alco DL-109, a diesel locomotive
styled by Raymond Loewy, owned by Rock Island (number 621) and repowered
by EMD. EMD is ElectroMotive Division, General Motors. The DL-109

locomotives; "
