ALCO PA's in Olympia
Author: BN Oly
Date: 03-19-2014 - 21:15

A recent clipping I got from the Daily Olympian shows a photo of an Alco carbody unit at the port of Olympia with a train called the More Power to America special. A little research yielded that it was a PA ( i thought maybe an FA, 6 axles must have been fun on the curves through downtown)

Anyway, that got the curiosity up. Its probably the only time there were PA's in Olympia. Does anyone know what happened to these units after their stint on the special train in 1951?
