CRIP FA-1m #131 - Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Title:  CRIP FA-1m #131 - Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Description:  A trio of Alcos head up a long string of boxcars in an unidentified stretch of track. Rebuilt by EMD sometime in the mid 1950s, the Alco diesel had two V16-567 prime movers installed. This would have made it a formidable powerhouse. No date, location or photographer was listed for the photo so approximates were used. Thanks to Mike Woodruff (see comment below), the location is Palmer Lake Joint Line in Colorado. Thank Mike for the help!

CRI&P FA-1m 134
Title:  CRI&P FA-1m 134
Description:  CRI&P FA-1m 134 being held at the tower in Joliet, Illinois on July 11, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The Rock Island acquired 16 FA-1's (or DL-208A) and 8 FB-1's (or DL-2>9A), delivered as 4500 horsepower A-B-A locomotives numbered in the 145-160 number series (the FB-1's were numbered 145B-152B). Model FA-1 #134 (c/l 76253) was built October 1948. Originally numbered 156 and powered b| an Alco model 244 diesel prime mover, it traded that power plant for an EMD 567 and was re-numbered" It also acquired Blomberg trucks in place of the Alco B trucks and was classed as FA-1m. It has both Alco and EMD builders plates, I have not yet found the EMD construcwion number used on this unit, although the EMD Order was 8514 and an EMD model 16-567C prime mover was installed sometime between March 1956 and December 1957.
