After attending the Allentown train show decided to stop by the Delaware Lackawanna to see if they were running. We ended up catching up with PT-98 at East Stroudsburg, PA and chased to Portland and return. Power was the "standard" classic Alco and MLW locomotives which included 5 different models, M420W, C420 M630, C636 (last one in existence) and a M636 with a massive train of over 100 cars for interchange with Norfolk Southern. Many thanks to the DL employees who continue to keep these classic Alco locomotives running for future generations to enjoy. I can't think of anyplace else in the country where its possible to see 5 different models of ALCO/MLW locomotives running in mainline service.
